Scholarships Fund

Education makes an enormous difference to people's lives.

In recent years, the demand for student support and scholarships has increased significantly, while the economic downturn and unprecedented health crisis have reduced the contributions. For the first time since the Undergraduate Talent Scholarship Fund was created in 2009, the University is facing the risk of not being able to support those young people who have the aspiration and talent to access higher education.

The University of Glasgow has a long tradition of widening participation and inclusion, regardless of background. The provision of world-class education for all students with ability and motivation is at the heart of the University of Glasgow's mission.

Situated amongst some of the highest areas of deprivation in Scotland, the university has a longstanding commitment to tackling social inequality through equal access to life-changing educational opportunities. With 28% of our undergraduate students coming from the 40% most deprived communities in Scotland, Glasgow has a strong track record of engaging and nurturing students from all backgrounds. 

A scholarship is more than a monetary gift, it is funding a future. By showing students with passion and aspiration that you believe in them and their talent, you open a door for them to fulfil their dreams.

Your support will play a critical role in helping us to tackle educational inequality and provide funding support to those facing the most pressing levels of financial need.

"I would like to express my respect for the generosity of donors who support students that would have otherwise faced financial difficulties at university or would have given up hope on attending university, which I have found to be a very enriching experience both academically and culturally. I myself may have fallen into the two categories mentioned previously if not for this support. I have great respect for the fact that people are passionate about widening participation in higher education and I am proud to be attending a university which endorses this." - Lewis, Accountancy student 

Together, we can grow a community of talented, empowered students and build the path for future world changers.
