Mature Student Scholarship

The Mature Student Scholarship is worth £3,000 in 2023/24 to support first year undergraduate students who were 25 or over on the first day of their course.

Administration of the Mature Student Scholarships is managed by the Student Financial Support (SFS) team.

Payment of the Scholarship

Successful applicants receive the Mature Student Scholarship in two equal £1,500 instalments - the first instalment is paid on Friday 26 April 2024 and the second instalment on Friday 26 July 2024. 

It is the responsibility of successful applicants to ensure they have submitted their bank details to the University via our secure submission page. 

It is also the responsibility of the applicant to advise the Mature Student Scholarship team at mature-students-info@york.ac.uk if there are any change to their studies (for example, a Leave of Absence or withdrawal) as soon as the change occurs. Applicants should also get in touch if their household income changes.

Successful applicants are required to complete two short statements on the impact of receiving the scholarship to be used for reporting and promotional purposes.
