University of Greenwich want to reward students from the schools and colleges through GREat Skills Scholarship. We work with students who prepare well for university by developing their independent learning and study skills before they start with us. If students participate in our outreach activities before joining us at the university, they could be eligible for GREat Skills scholarship.
The University of Greenwich is a British, United Kingdom-based university. It has three campuses in London and Kent, England. These are located at Greenwich, in the grounds of the Old Royal Naval College, and in Avery Hill and Medway. It is the greenest university in the UK in 2012 as assessed by The People & Planet Green League.
If students participate in a minimum of 5 of our outreach activities during their A Level/Level 3 studies and will be joining us for their undergraduate studies in September 2024, they may be eligible for a substantial cash scholarship of £2,000.
This will be paid to students in three instalments during their first year.

Applications for 2024/25 close at midnight on 24 May 2024.
Please note, that where we receive a large number of scholarship nominations, priority will be given to submissions from those within underrepresented backgrounds, e.g. POLAR 4 Q1 and IMD Q1 (areas with the lowest proportion of young people who participate in higher education). We reserve the right to change this criteria subject to guidance from the OfS. A committee will review all applications and award scholarships on merit.
We aim to make our decision by 6 June 2024.
