There is that: http://www.scholarship-search.org.uk/ http://www.scholarshipsworld.org/category/uk-scholarships/ I am not sure how useful those websites are. I suggest going to the website of the university you are interested in and checking their funding section. There, they may have their own funding search. I used Oxford and Edinburgh funding search in the past. Some of the external funding they suggest will be valid for other schools, I am sure, so you could try that! http://www.ox.ac.uk/feesandfunding/fundingsearch/ http://www.ed.ac.uk/schools-departments/student-funding/search-scholarships All the best!

To be honest, I have never heard of this. Are you sure? But, yes, I totally feel your pain. It never made sense to me why those departments are often held together. For many applicants, those fields will not be 'adjacent' interests. Many modernists would often rather take a class in ME politics, European history, anthropology etc. than in Near Eastern Studies. I suspect vice versa works as well.

I think Paura's record is impressive beyond impressive this year! Huge congratulations!

1. I want to teach at college level. In order to do that I need a Ph.D. 2. I want to do research in my field. I really want to publish something new, have a book or two. A Ph.D. is a very first humble step towards this. 3. I am politically and socially liberal as hell. University campus is one of few places where I will feel comfortable and fulfilled. That's the idea. That's also super-naive, I know that.

This is awesome! We are likely to meet soon then!

I am not sure whether you asked for the advice we all provide here now but yes, a good point there. Especially for those not from the USA, the name is a big deal. Not only for placements if we choose to go back but for purely egotistic purposes. Most parents outside of the USA have heard of only a few schools in America. You got into awesome schools and I am glad to hear you got full funding!

A bit disappointing really. Sure, they added some new (technical) fields and updated a few, including medicine and law but they didn't update their Social Sciences at all, it seems. I guess we'll have to live with the ranking of 2009 for History, Political Science, English and such.
