Undergraduate Scholarships and Bursaries
Undergraduate Academic Achievement Scholarships
The Department provides Undergraduate Academic Achievement Scholarships for all Home and EU students entering in September 2013 who achieve AAA in their A-levels (or equivalent).
An Undergraduate Academic Achievement Scholarship is worth £3000 of which £2000 is paid after registration and a second installment of £1000 is paid at the end of the first year if a course average of 70% or more is achieved.
Undergradauate Academic Achievement Scholarships are distinct from the University Bursaries scheme for UK students and can be awarded on top of other bursaries you may receive from the University.
Applicants deferring entry are eligible for consideration for this award; payment will automatically be deferred until October 2014.
If you apply through UCAS for a place on one of our courses, we will send you more information about the entrance bursary scheme when we receive your application form. If you would like further details now, please follow the `Request Information´ link on the left.
