About
Alexander McQueen is a British luxury fashion house founded by designer and UAL alumnus, Lee Alexander McQueen. Since 2014, the partnership between Alexander McQueen and Central Saint Martins has had a tremendous impact on our students, offering six talented students the opportunity to study at a world leading fashion design institution, when they may otherwise not have been able to afford to do so.
In 2023, Alexander McQueen decided to renew its support to Central Saint Martins with three new scholarships. These scholarships will help excellent students on the MA Fashion course who come from an economically disadvantaged background and who might otherwise be deterred from studying at Central Saint Martins.
The scholarship will be assessed based on financial need and academic merit. It will provide a contribution towards tuition fees, course costs and living expenses for Home students and a contribution to tuition fees only for International students.
Applications are welcome from those who are in financial hardship and those who will benefit from postgraduate studies to realise their full potential.
