Supporting our students to succeed through scholarships.

Made from More scholarships are significant financial awards that are made to students to support them in their studies. They are awarded at the commencement of their degree and support them throughout the entire duration of their studies. The support is essential for some students to meet the increasing costs of studying for a degree and living independently.

Scholarships ensure that we don’t lose talented and dedicated students because financial hardship prevents them from flourishing or even completing their degree.

Targeting those in need

Our scholarship programmes are designed to support students with the most financial need. In addition to that we look to support:

applicants who are care leavers;
applicants who are irreconcilably estranged from their parents;
applicants who are a first-generation student i.e. from a family where neither your parent(s) or guardian(s) have attended university and obtained an undergraduate degree or equivalent level qualification in the UK or abroad
Hold refugee status
applicants who live in a ‘low participation’ neighbourhood. These are areas where low numbers of young people progress to university (you can check your postcode at OfS – search your postcode. Priority will be for those in the lowest POLAR4 young participation quintile).
Protected characteristics as defined in the Equality Act 2010.
children of military families;
Any additional course or donor specified criteria.
PG students and those progressing onto further study.

The scholarship programme is funded through the generosity of philanthropic donors and corporate sponsorship and it is only made possible by the individuals and organisations who support us.

Many of our donors want to be able to recognise someone in their past who didn’t have the opportunity to go to university, or someone who inspired them in their own journey, or perhaps someone who is no longer with us. Donors who give a gift that supports a full scholarship (£9,000 in total, either through monthly donations or a one-off) are able to name that award after a chosen person. A short bio (and a picture if you would like) will be featured below in the ‘current named scholarship section’.

As Vice-Chancellor I am personally supporting a scholarship to honour my grandmother, Marjorie Blouet who was unable to attend university due to a lack of opportunity and funding at the time. Through this named scholarship opportunity, I am delighted that in her memory, I am able to provide support to a student to attend university.

The Stoneygate Scholarship provides three students from low income or disadvantaged backgrounds with an award of £4,000 per year*. The scholarships recognise students who have overcome adversity in pursuit of their goals.

The Mattioli Scholarship is generously funded by the Ian and Clare Mattioli Charitable Trust and provides financial support for students from low/medium income families, or disadvantaged backgrounds, with an award of £3,000 per year (for a maximum three years).

National law firm Freeths has established a scholarship programme for law students in memory of Mukesh Patel, former Managing Partner of Freeths鈥� Leicester Office.

The Sophia Webster Scholarship was established by the international luxury footwear brand Sophia Webster and aims to widen access to the Footwear Design BA(Hons). The scholarship provides financial support for students from low/medium income families, or disadvantaged backgrounds, with an award of £3,000 per year (for a maximum three years).

The Welford Investments Scholarship is generously funded by Petar and Patricia Cvetkovic and will support an undergraduate student studying either a business or psychology course. Funds of £3000 are awarded each year, for the second and third year of study.

Having the scholarship has meant I haven't needed to work a job while being at uni. This has meant that I have more time for myself, being able to be more flexible with my university work and being able to spend extra time on some work I didn't understand. I think this has had a major impact on my final grade of the year as without all the spare time I don't think I would have been able to achieve it.
