A number of resources provide support to current students.
Conference funding
If you are presenting a paper at a conference you may be eligible for help with funding.
Special Circumstances
Special Circumstances Forms must be submitted to the Graduate School office, room 12.15, David Hume Tower, by Monday 20th May.
Travel funds
If you are undertaking any study abroad you may be eligible to apply for a travel award.
Inter-library loans
All students can request a number of interlibrary loans per year free of charge. This number is 20 for MSc Taught and 30 per year for research students. The year starts on 1st September. Please note that renewals of physical loans are included in the quota and each renewal will count as a loan.
Students must first check that the book is not available at the University of Edinburgh before making the request to the Main Library staff.
If you exceed your quota, you will still be able to have the interlibrary loan, but you will be charged by the library; each interlibrary loan costs £5.
