About the Bursary

This bursary is for assistance with a device or internet costs.

Criteria/Eligibility

This Digital Connectivity bursary is intended to provide support for Home students (eligible for student finance) who have no access to a device and / or internet provision for their studies and for whom funding is a barrier to purchasing their own device. The bursary will be awarded to for eligible students in their first semester of studies at UWTSD who are seeking a financial contribution towards digital connectivity (up to £100) or device costs and connectivity (up to £300). Eligible students will be enrolled on a minimum of 40 credits on a UWTSD course and will be in receipt of the maximum level of Student Finance support.

Additional Information

PLEASE NOTE: If you do not receive the maximum financial support from Student Finance you have two alternative routes for support.

1) If you purchased your own device you can apply for up to £250 towards the cost via the Course Costs bursary. You will need to provide a copy of the receipt for your purchase.

2) If you are unable to afford to purchase your own device you can make an application for support via this bursary but you will be asked to provide additional information and evidence to support your application.
