60th Anniversary Scholarship

Applications for this scholarship can be submitted via video, audio or in writing. We would like you to respond to the following two questions:

1. Tell us about yourself and why you want to study at UEA
2. Consider the different social and extra-curricular opportunities available to you at UEA, and outline how you may engage with these in order to enhance your experience and those of your fellow students.

Submissions should be via the application form below. Video must be .mp4 format, filmed in standard definition (not HD or UHD) and no longer than 2 minutes in length. Written submissions must be no more than 500 words.

The 60th Anniversary Scholarship is only open to UK fee-paying students who are starting their first undergraduate course at UEA.

The scholarship is worth £1000, paid in two instalments in October and March of your first year. There are 30 available. If you are successful in being awarded a scholarship we ask to hear from you twice in your first year, updating us on how you have used the money to support your extracurricular activities. This can be through a blog, vlog or Instagram or TikTok reels – whatever you feel best showcases the activity you have undertaken.

The following courses are not eligible for this scholarship:

• BSc Medical Research
• Degree Apprenticeships
• Courses with an International Year One
• Final Year only courses
• UEA Accredited degrees run by partner institutions

Applicants must have applied to UEA through the UCAS main scheme and have chosen UEA as their firm choice by the deadline to be considered. Students coming through Clearing are not eligible.

Successful students will be expected to provide 2 updates in your first year, around how you have used the scholarship to support your extracurricular activities. This could be in the form of a blog, vlog, Instagram or TikTok reel.
