St Anne’s offers a number of generous Graduate Scholarships, Graduate Development Scholarships and Travel and Conference Grants.  It also offers a number of linked awards in collaboration with University departments. The College awarded 25 new graduate scholarships and bursaries in addition to 10 scholarships which were renewed, totalling £85,997, in the academic year 2012/13. These included nine much-prized Graduate Development Scholarships and Graduate Teaching Bursaries.  These were awarded to both first-year graduate students and to those moving on to doctoral research.

Centenary Scholarships and Bursaries

St Anne’s students who continue at St Anne’s as full-time students registered for a postgraduate degree are automatically awarded either a Centenary Scholarship or a Centenary Bursary. A Centenary Scholarship has a value of £1,000 and is awarded to those St Anne’s students who obtained either a First Class degree or a Distinction on a taught Masters programme.  Otherwise, a Centenary Bursary (£500) is awarded.

Bursaries for Clinical Medicine and Graduate-Entry Medicine

St Anne’s Pre-Clinical Medics who choose to stay on at St Anne’s for their clinical years, and also Graduate-Entry Medicine students are awarded a bursary of £850 for one year only. It is intended to be used to help with the purchase of any necessary equipment required for the course.
