About
Since 2003, our Sports Scholarship Program has helped students realize their athletic potential. Along with successes including Olympic competition, national championships, and medals at BUCS competitions.
If you’re a gifted student-athlete, we offer extensive Sports Scholarships that offer a network of support, and financial aid. Also the chance to receive mentoring from elite athletes to help you grow as a sportsperson and student.
What does the plan provide?
We are dedicated to providing students who exhibit exceptional athletic ability or who have the potential to do so soon with sporting excellence and support. Since its start in 2003, the program has assisted hundreds of students in competing in more than 20 different sports. By providing support to all students and sports that meet the eligibility requirements.
Our sports scholarships provide you with many benefits, including free use of our facilities, and financial help of up to £1,250. Along with strength and nutritional counseling, among others.
We want to help you to succeed as a student-athlete. We understand the importance of mental health and academic balance to your growth. We are honored to partner with the True Athlete Project (TAP), an innovative program that offers mindfulness-based training to coaches and athletes across all sports, to provide our Sports Scholars with mentoring opportunities from top athletes.
