Stipends are reviewed at the same time as University stipends and are normally increased in line with increases in Cambridge University academic salaries generally.

These will increase, with retrospective effect to 1 August 2011, when the 2011 cost of living award is known. A stipendiary Fellow already holding an award from another organisation, such as a Research Council or similar body, will be paid a stipend from the date such an award expires.

An annual allowance of £500 is provided for each Fellow to be used for academic purposes including the purchase of books, computing equipment or attendance at conferences. In addition, The Fitzwilliam Society Trust has established a fund from which grants may be made to assist with certain approved research expenses which are not covered by departmental, faculty or other sources.
