Додаткова інформація про процес подання заявки

All applications must be made via our online application form. The application form should be completed by a referrer on your behalf.  This could  be someone from an education or welfare organisation (e.g. a teacher, lecturer, Support Worker) or appropriate youth professional known to you (e.g. case worker, mentor, youth worker, pastor).

If you do not have anyone who can complete the application on your behalf, we can accept a self-referral.

However, you will need to include the contact details of someone who has agreed to provide a reference in support of your application – this should NOT be a friend or family member. Applications will not be assessed if these details are not included.

If you self-refer, you must still submit a full and detailed application form and provide proof of your immigration status.

As we are a small charity our funds are extremely limited. Our maximum grant is £4,500, however, most grants awarded will be smaller than this. Therefore, we will not be able to fund university tuition fees in full.

If you are seeking support for your tuition fees it is important that you also apply to other charities and can clearly demonstrate how you plan to meet the full costs of studying throughout the academic year. As part of your application we will require the names of the organisations and the amounts you have applied for.
