The Atkins Scholarship fund

The Atkins Scholarship fund supports home students who continue their studies from undergraduate to postgraduate at Lucy Cavendish College, University of Cambridge. The scholarship provides £5,000 to £10,000 as a one-off maintenance award for full-time Masters students. Priority is given to students from groups that are underrepresented in postgraduate study, as well as students who may have faced an educational or socio-economic disadvantage. Applicants must have completed their undergraduate studies at Lucy Cavendish College. The award is based on financial need and hardship considerations. One scholarship is available for the 2026/27 academic year, with application results typically announced in May-June.
