Scholarships and Bursaries
Our awards are available to help you with the cost of your studies. They range from sports and skills-based scholarships to bursaries for students in financial need.
Help with your studies
We are committed to supporting students from all backgrounds, including those with low household income.
We'll automatically award £700 to eligible new undergraduate students to help with study costs.
Help with your travel costs
Our commuter bursaries support new students from low-income households who face challenging travel costs to attend university. The bursaries are worth up to £1,000 per academic year and can be redeemed for:
- Public transport
- Bicycles and safety equipment
- Petrol costs, if a car is necessary.
EU Bursary
Following the UK's departure from the European Union, we are supporting new EU students by offering a substantial fee-reduction for the first year of study in 2021/22.
Promoting study skills
If you participate in our GREat Skills programme before you join us, you could be eligible for a scholarship worth £2,000.
Care Leavers
The Care Leaver Bursary provides £1,500 per year to undergraduate students who are joining the university directly from local authority care.
Sanctuary Scholarship
This scholarship is for an offer holder seeking asylum or with refugee status in the United Kingdom. It covers tuition and accommodation costs, plus a maintenance grant.
