Several funding sources are available to students of the Faculty of Theology and Religion. Funded from a variety of sources including Trust Funds, grants from philanthropic organisations and other benefactors, these awards will partly or wholly cover fees and/or a maintenance stipend.

Since 2014 the Faculty has made funding opportunities for the most talented students its principal development objective, and has collected many generous donations (above all from its own alumni) in its Power of Seven Fund. This is used to match funding available from colleges and other external donors to make complete awards at both Masters and Doctoral level.
