The Holbeck Charitable Trust is working in partnership with the Excellence Hub for Yorkshire and Humber to offer a number of one-off scholarships of £1,000 for young people from schools/colleges in Yorkshire and Humber who are starting a university course in autumn 2012.
The scholarships are not intended to fund any particular aspect of the student's university life. We are keen that students view the scholarship as a reward for their hard work and commitment, perhaps in the face of adversity, and successful progression to university. Please note that there are a limited number of scholarships available and the application process is competitive.
The scholarships are administered by the Excellence Hub for Yorkshire and Humber, but eligible students could be applying to attend any higher education institution, including those outside the region.
Please note the timeline for submitting applications:
