Sport scholarships
High Performance Squad
The principal method of financially supporting talented student athletes at the University is membership of the High Performance Squad . Individual squad members develop their own 'action plan' which determines the services they require. Membership of the squad is the equivalent to a sports bursary of approximately £1000 p.a.
Vice Chancellor's Award
Twelve awards (current value £1,500 pa) are made to new students who show exceptional talents in sport or the arts. Individuals will be expected to have succeeded at national rather than regional level and have met the normal academic criteria for entry to the University. The awards can be provisionally made to prospective students, and confirmed upon the student’s acceptance of an offer of a place at the University.
Closing date for applications: 28 February 2013.
