We pride ourselves on the environment and support services we provide to all our student-athletes in our performance programmes to support them to develop. Through our performance programmes, student-athletes have access to dedicated coaches, in-house support services and integrated academic members our staff providing a support package for each student worth thousands of pounds, all available on campus.
In addition to this we recognise the additional financial demands of competing at a high level and combining performance sport and study. We therefore offer financial (cash award) scholarships. Our scholarships are annual cash awards and vary between £1,000 and £5,000.
