The value is currently £2500 per grant. All applicants are required to submit a budget for their study period and two signed letters of recommendation from persons of academic or professional standing.

Each successful applicant will be requested to accept the award confirming that you meet the prerequisite requirements, that a lack of funding will not be a hindrance for the fulfilment of your studies and that you will submit a short report to the Anglo-Danish Society at the end of the academic year for which the award was given. Also, you will be asked to grant us permission to publicise your award.
