Additional Requirements
If you have applied through UCAS to study at Edge Hill University and firmly accepted an offer of a place for 2023 entry, you could develop your sporting performance by applying for a Sports Scholarship worth up to £1,000 per academic year.
Sports Scholarships have nothing to do with your financial situation, degree subject or academic achievement. If you are talented at sport and participate, coach or officiate at a competitive level, then we want to hear from you.
There are three distinctive levels of Sports Scholarship awards with different benefits and qualification criteria.
Scholarship Benefits
Gold
Up to £1,000 towards training and competition expenses each academic year
Silver
Up to £500 towards training and competition expenses each academic year
Bronze
Up to £250 towards training and competition expenses each academic year
To be eligible to apply for a Sports Scholarship, you must have applied to study a full-time undergraduate degree (BA/BEng/BSc/LLB/MBChB), full-time integrated Masters degree (MComp/MEng/MNSW/MSci), full-time foundation degree (FdA/FdSc) or full-time PGCE or PGDE at Edge Hill University and firmly accepted an offer of a place to study with us.
Please note, while MBChB Medicine and MBChB Medicine with Foundation Year applicants are eligible to apply for a Sports Scholarship, the scholarship benefits available may vary from those outlined above due to the longer length of these programmes.
Your application will be judged to determine whether your application has been successful and, if so, to establish Gold, Silver or Bronze classification.
You will need to demonstrate that you meet one or more of the criteria below for a particular level of Sports Scholarship. The criteria serve as a preliminary guideline only and does not guarantee the receipt of a Sports Scholarship or a specific level of award.

How to Apply
If you are awarded a Sports Scholarship but subsequently defer your offer of a place to study with us, you will no longer be eligible to receive the Sports Scholarship, though you are welcome to re-apply for a Sports Scholarship in the following application cycle before you join your course. Please bear in mind, however, that there is a competitive application process so a successful outcome to your second application (or the same level of award) cannot be guaranteed.
Direct entrants to Year 2 or later of undergraduate programmes, as well as permanent employees of Edge Hill University, are not eligible for a Sports Scholarship.
