Description
Thanks to their contributions, access bursaries are available to support undergraduate students of outstanding potential, with 3 more bursaries available in the next academic session for new students joining in September.
Benefits
The School of Chemistry are offering three bursaries, for the sum of £2,000 each per year (e.g. £8,000 for a four-year BSc or £10,000 for five-year MChem course). This annual bursary will be available for duration of the programme of study, subject to satisfactory academic progression.
Eligibility
- The bursaries will be awarded to UK-based applicants who are accepted for full-time admission to an undergraduate degree programme offered by the School of Chemistry at the University of Edinburgh.
- The bursaries are not available to students already on programme. They are also not available to students studying Chemistry as part of a degree programme hosted by another School within the University. Eligible students must have applied through the University and Colleges Admission Service (UCAS) and have been offered a place at the University of Edinburgh.
The bursaries are aimed at students who are:
- attending schools with low attainment or progression to Higher Education
- from disadvantaged backgrounds based on area deprivation measures e.g. the Scottish Index of Multiple Deprivation (SIMD20)
- people with care experience
- young carers themselves
- refugees or have asylum seeker status
- involved in LEAPS or other Widening Participation programmes e.g. SWAP Access Programme.
Eligible students will have evidenced, or be predicted to achieve, a strong academic performance before starting university. When offering bursaries, we will take the above factors plus academic merit into consideration.
