This scholarship supports forced migrants who are not eligible for student finance to access higher education with us. There is one scholarship available each year. The support package can be tailored according to the awardees needs. This may include a cash bursary, covering accommodation costs, covering travel costs or other in-kind support. If you are shortlisted for the scholarship, you will be invited to an interview and a panel will assess all applications and select the scholarship awardee.
