The Richard III Foundation, Inc., a non-profit educational organization sponsors two awards that are designed to assist graduate students of Medieval History.
The Richard III Foundation Scholarship for Medieval Studies is awarded annually to a graduate student who is writing a dissertation on an aspect of English history during the later middle ages (c. 1350-1500). Applications will be accepted from PhD candidates who are seeking to fund an extension year. The Scholarship is intended to help a student meet the costs of research and/or living expenses. The successful applicant must be able to provide evidence of both academic excellence and financial need.
The Loyal to the Truth Award is a smaller award, to the value of £150, to assist a graduate student with the costs of their research. Applicants should be studying an aspect of English history during the Yorkist period (~1450-1500). The Loyal to the Truth Award is intended to help with the funding of a discrete, short-term project that is consistent with more general research aims. This award is not intended to provide assistance with general living expenses, although applicants should again be able to provide evidence of financial hardship.
