The Mattioli Scholarship

The Mattioli Scholarship is generously funded by the Ian and Clare Mattioli Charitable Trust and provides financial support for students from low/medium income families, or disadvantaged backgrounds, with an award of £3,000 per year (for a maximum three years). These awards aim to support students from lower income or disadvantaged backgrounds, easing financial pressures so that students can balance study and external pressures, allowing them to achieve their full potential.

The eligibility criteria are:

1. You must be a new UK student, starting a full-time undergraduate degree in September 2023.
2. You are being charged the full tuition fees. These are not being paid (in full or part) by a sponsor or any other professional body.
3. Applications will be prioritised where household Income has been assessed by student finance as £25,000 or below.
4. You've not studied in higher education previously. Only applicants with exceptional circumstances could be considered outside these criteria.
5. You must be enrolled on, and attending an eligible course when the payments are made. Students who transfer to a non-eligible course will cease to be eligible and payments will be prorated up to the point of eligibility.
6. Scholarships are not normally paid during repeat years of study.
