Undergraduate Sanctuary Scholarship

ملاحظات إضافية حول معايير الأهلية

You must ensure that you meet all of the eligibility criteria outlined below in order to apply and you must be able to provide documentary evidence to verify your circumstances in relation to each criteria. Applicants who do not meet the full criteria will not be considered for an award.
Criteria 1: Sanctuary Eligibility Criteria

You must be living in the UK at the time of your UG Sanctuary Scholarship application. The UK includes England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland. We will not accept applications from students living outside of the UK.

In addition, you must meet ONE of the following Sanctuary criteria:

You have sought asylum from the UK government (you are an asylum seeker) or were included as a dependent (spouse/child) on an application for asylum. Please note: Spouses/civil partners must have been the spouse/civil partner on the date on which the asylum application to the UK government was made. Children/step-children must have been aged under 18 on the date on which the asylum application to the UK government was made.

You have received a decision on your claim for asylum but your new visa status does not allow you to access UK Government Student Financial Support (i.e. Tuition Fee Loans and Maintenance Loans) nor does it give you Home Fee status. For example, if your decision contains the words “no public funds”, this means that you cannot access UK student loans, therefore you would be eligible to apply for this scholarship.

Please note: If you have been granted refugee status or protection under specific schemes that make you eligible for ‘Home fee’ status and student loans from the UK government, such as the Ukraine Schemes or Afghan Schemes, you will not be eligible for the Undergraduate Sanctuary Scholarship.

If your new visa status means that you are eligible for student financial support from the UK Government, we would advise you to contact the relevant student loans company for more information:
