Requirements for Brunel University London Undergraduate Scholarship Qualification

• Must have attended the Brunel Urban Scholars programme for a minimum of 2 years.
• Must hold an offer of a place on a full time Undergraduate course (including placement routes and Undergraduate integrated Masters programmes). This includes offers made through UCAS Clearing and Adjustment. Clearing applicants must ensure that they inform the Student Loans Company (SLC) at the earliest opportunity that they are attending Brunel University London. The Student Loans Company must notify Brunel University London by 01 September 2023. Failure to do this will result in the applicant not being considered for the award.
• Offer must be for FHEQ Level 4 (Year 1) or foundation year of the course. Foundation students will be considered eligible, but if awarded, scholarship payments will not begin until the student progresses to FHEQ Level 4 (Year 1). This means no payments will be made during the foundation year.
• Offer must be ‘Unconditional Firm’ (UF) by the date the Scholarship Allocation Panel make their awards in October (i.e. applicant must have met all offer conditions and firmly accepted the place).
• Must commence the course in the upcoming academic year (applicants for deferred entry will be considered for a scholarship in the year they start their course and not in the year of their course application).
• Must be ordinarily resident in the UK (includes those living in England, Wales, Northern Ireland, Scotland).
• Must be classed as a Home fee paying student based on the UK government regulations. Applicants who are unsure of their fee status should note Brunel uses the information you have provided in your application form to assess your fee status against regulations set by the UK government.
