• Nationality: Any nationality can apply.
• Grades: You have achieved outstanding academic results, as the prize is awarded on the basis of merit.

How realistic are your chances?

This award is presented exclusively to students at Ulster University and is based on academic merit. This means that the pool of applicants is limited to the very best students from a single university. If your academic performance is outstanding, your chances are good. The amount of the grant is modest, so it is intended as supplementary funding rather than full funding.
