The scheme provides bursaries to students from the West Midlands to help them make the most of their studies at Cambridge University. The fund for the scheme arises out of our historical association with the West Midlands Examinations Board.

The scheme gives students bursaries of £3,000 per annum for the lifetime of their undergraduate studies. Bursaries will be awarded to up to approximately ten students. Applicants may choose whether the bursary is used for living costs or tuition fees or for a combination of both.

Applications for the bursary scheme for 2019/20 are now open. Please use the form below. Individual students are required to complete one section of the form, while a school/college completes the nomination section.

The closing date for all applications is Tuesday 7 May 2019. Selection will take place in June 2019 and applicants will be notified of the final decision in August 2019 when their places at Cambridge University have been confirmed
