Imperial College London Original Source

About This Opportunity

The Sanctuary Scholarship is designed to support refugees, asylum seekers, and forced migrants who have received an offer to study any undergraduate programme at Imperial College London. The scholarship provides comprehensive financial support to enable recipients to pursue their undergraduate education at one of the UK's leading universities. This scholarship is part of Imperial's commitment to widening access and supporting students who have faced significant barriers to continuing their education due to their immigration status and circumstances. The award recognizes that forced migration creates substantial obstacles to accessing higher education, and aims to remove financial barriers for talented students from refugee backgrounds. Recipients will benefit from full tuition fee coverage, a substantial annual stipend, and equipment funding to support their studies across all undergraduate programmes offered by Imperial College London.
