The Marjorie Blouet Scholarship

Marjorie Blouet
As Vice-Chancellor, my family and I are supporting a scholarship to honour my grandmother, Marjorie Blouet who was unable to attend university due to a lack of opportunity and funding at the time.

Under the Made from More Scholarship Programme, I am delighted that we have created the Marjorie Blouet Scholarship so that in her memory, we can support students, who might not otherwise be able, to attend university.

    To be eligible, students must:

    2. Be a home/fee paying student — have a UK Student Support Number (English, Scottish, Welsh, and Northern Irish students)
    3. Apply online to be income assessed by Student Finance
    4. Demonstrate financial need — household income must indicate that students are eligible for means-tested support from Student Finance with a household income of up to and including £50,000

  2. Terms and conditions

    1. This scholarship is not transferrable.
    2. The data on your student finance record must meet the award edibility criteria. In order to be able to be fully assessed against the criteria you must:
      1. Have completed your student finance application and it must have been assessed and finalised by your relevant UK student finance authority.
      2. Have signed and returned your student declaration form to the SLC.
      3. Ensure your relevant UK student finance authority record is available to Âéw¶¹´«Ã½. Therefore, you must have given permission for your information to be shared with the university.
      4. Ensure that your parents/sponsors have given student finance their permission for their information to be shared with Âéw¶¹´«Ã½.
    3. Student records must include bank details in order for the scholarship to be paid, as the scholarship is paid directly into a student's bank account by Âéw¶¹´«Ã½. If your student record is not in a position for payment to be made, your payment will be delayed or not made at all.
    4. The scholarship will be paid in instalments in line with Âéw¶¹´«Ã½â€™s normal Bursary and Scholarship payment schedule, which is once per term.
    5. Any scholarship payments made by Âéw¶¹´«Ã½ after a student has interrupted their studies or withdrawn from the university will normally be recovered from the student.
    6. Any scholarship payment made by Âéw¶¹´«Ã½ in error OR paid as a result of false information submitted will normally be recovered from the student.
    7. If a payment is not received, it is the responsibility of the student to urgently contact the Scholarships Team at Âéw¶¹´«Ã½, so that the non-payment can be investigated.

    Âéw¶¹´«Ã½ reserves the right to revise or amend these eligibility criteria and terms and conditions at any time without prior notice. The information provided above must be used in conjunction with award specific information on our Scholarships.
