About This Opportunity
The Kent UKAT Ambition Scholarship extends support to students who completed their studies at one of the University of Kent's sponsored academies: Brompton Academy or Chatham Grammar. The scholarship is worth £2,000 for each year of study (pro-rata for part-time students) and will be renewed on an annual basis, subject to satisfactory progress. If a student is required to repeat a year, the scholarship will be paused until they continue to the next stage of study. Kent UKAT Ambition Scholarship holders will be invited to join the Kent Ambition Scholars Programme. As part of this programme, students will receive targeted support throughout their student journey and encouraged to develop their employability skills by being invited to apply to different opportunities within the University, such as becoming a Student Ambassador. The scholarship is aimed at students from backgrounds of socio-economic deprivation and underrepresented groups, with priority given to those living in areas of deprivation, low-participation neighbourhoods, care leavers, estranged students, Gypsy/Roma/Traveller communities, first-generation university students, students with caring responsibilities, those in supported accommodation, or those who received free school meals.
