St Andrews Gateway to Physics and Astronomy Scholarship

This scholarship has been established to support students on the Gateway and Supported Pathways Programmes who are intending to study Physics at the University of St Andrews. The scholarship forms part of the Wardlaw Scholarship scheme, established in 2004 to provide financial assistance to academically gifted students who would otherwise struggle with the cost of studying at the University of St Andrews. The award provides £4,400 per year paid as maintenance but can be used towards University accommodation fees. Maintenance is paid in ten monthly instalments directly to the student's bank account from September to May, with a double payment in February. This award is paid annually for the duration of the student's undergraduate programme. Selection is based on financial need and donor-specific criteria, and scholarships in the Wardlaw Collection are applied for through the St Andrews Access Award application form.
