Anglia Ruskin Aspire Scholarship

In line with its commitment to encourage progression and to reward success, Anglia Ruskin provides a non-repayable, non means-tested scholarship to full-time UK/EU undergraduate students on HEFCE funded courses who pay the £3,375 fee.

An award of £500 a year will be paid to eligible students via the Anglia Ruskin Aspire Card, subject to successful progression from the first semester into the second semester and completion of an attendance task in Semester 2. Awards will be paid net of any student debt owing to the University. You do not need to apply for the Anglia Ruskin Aspire Scheme, as we will automatically contact you via your student email account at the start of your second semester with us if you do meet the eligibility criteria.

Once the money is loaded onto your Aspire Card, the scholarship funds can then be used to support your learning experience.

How do I know if I am eligible for the Aspire Scholarship?

You are potentially eligible for the Anglia Ruskin Aspire Scholarship if you are a registered full-time student and you meet the following standard scholarship eligibility criteria:

• You are an undergraduate home student paying the full fee of £3,375 in 2011/12
• You are on a HEFCE or TDA funded course
• You are studying one of the following awards
• BA (Hons) or BSc (Hons)
• Foundation Degree

Please note that if you are assessed as an ELQ student (eg you are studying on a course that has an Equivalent or Lower Qualification aim than the highest qualification you have achieved previously) you will not be eligible for the Anglia Ruskin Aspire Scheme.
