Are you currently studying an undergraduate course and due to graduate in 2025? Are you interested in some extra funding and development opportunities? The Santander Universities Scholars Programme is here to help.
The Santander Universities Scholars Programme will support 100 current full-time undergraduate students, due to graduate in 2025, who identify as part of an underrepresented group throughout the duration of their studies.
They will receive consistent funding over three academic years, a series of employability training and development sessions and a dedicated mentor to guide them through the programme.
To be eligible the students must identify with one or more of 10 groups who are underrepresented in the higher education space.
The underrepresented groups include:
- Students from areas of low higher education participation, low household income or low socioeconomic status
- Black, Asian and minority ethnic students
- Mature students
- Disabled students
- Care experienced students
- Carers
- Students estranged from their families
- Students from Gypsy, Roma and Traveller communities
- Refugees
- Students from military families.
Applications are currently open and close at 11pm (GMT) on 31 of January 2023.
