Alumni Support Fund Scholarships

Wholly funded by generous donations from our alumni, the Alumni Support Fund Scholarships are for talented first year students seeking extra financial support. In 2012/13, we were able to award ten £500 awards to give those students the very best start to their time at Anglia Ruskin University. Please read more about our scholars below and what it means to them. If you are interested in helping us to support more students through scholarships, you can make a donation by clicking the 'Donate Now' button or by getting in touch with the Development & Alumni Relations Office.
