The University of Roehampton is proud to offer the Care Leaver and Care-Experienced Student Bursary to support students who have experienced local authority care and are beginning an undergraduate degree with us.
This bursary provides financial support and accommodation assistance to help care-experienced students succeed during their time at Roehampton.
Eligible students will receive:
- £2,000 per year of study for up to four years while enrolled on an undergraduate programme at Roehampton.
- 52 weeks of university accommodation for the cost of a 38-week contract, where on-campus accommodation is required.
If you do not require university accommodation, this element of the bursary can be waived. The accommodation benefit is only available where university accommodation is taken.
To receive the bursary you must:
- Meet the legal definition of a Care Leaver (see above).
- Be enrolled on an undergraduate programme at the University of Roehampton, including Extended Degrees.
- Hold Home fee status.
Additional information:
- Bursary payments in Years 2, 3 and (where applicable) Year 4 are subject to successful academic progression. Payments will not be received for repeat years.
- Payments are made in two instalments each year, in early November and March.
- Once your eligibility is confirmed, you will not need to reapply each year.
