Dear Students,
We would like to inform about the Leeds International Summer School (LISS) 2023.
Leeds International Summer School (LISS) combines world-class tuition and academic field trips with exciting excursions and social events. LISS is open to students or recent graduates from universities across the globe. Join us for the full four-week programme or a two-week block.
Next summer school will run from 1–29 July 2023 (block one: 1–15 July, block two: 16–29 July).
Scholarships
Merit scholarships
If you have a Grade Point Average (GPA) of 3.2 or above (or equivalent) and you apply by the 1 April early application deadline, you can apply for one of over 20 merit scholarships to help pay for your fees.
The scholarship is worth £500 if you’re attending the full four-week programme and £250 if you’re attending either block one or block two.
To apply, you should upload your answers to the following questions as a supporting document during the online application:
- Have you ever worked as part of a team (e.g. at University or high school, or as part of paid employment or voluntary work)? What was your role in the team and what did the team achieve as a result of your contribution?
- Tell us about any extra-curricular activities that you take part in (e.g. clubs, societies, projects or volunteer work)
- What skills/knowledge do you think you will develop during your time at LISS?
- How do you think that LISS will help you to achieve your long-term goals?
Please note you can apply for both the merit scholarship and LISS Champion scholarship, but you can’t receive both.
Champion scholarships
We are looking for four LISS Champions to raise the profile of Leeds International Summer School.
As a Champion, you’ll share your experience of attending the summer school via different platforms including social media, blog posts and presenting at events before, during and after the programme. The scholarship is worth £1,000 which will be used to help pay your LISS fees.
To apply, you should have an offer of a place on LISS for the full four-week programme. You should email a video that is no longer than two minutes to summer@leeds.ac.uk telling us why we should choose you to be a LISS Champion.
You should explain why you would be a good Champion for the University of Leeds, any relevant experience you have and how the opportunity will help you achieve your academic, personal and/or professional goals. The application deadline is 1 April.
Please note you can apply for both the merit scholarship and LISS Champion scholarship, but you can’t receive both.
