Alumni Award Scholarship

What are the requirements for maintaining the Alumni Award Scholarship as a student?

All scholarships at Richmond American University London are awarded with terms and conditions for maintaining your award as a student. When you accept your scholarship offer, you agree to these terms and conditions as well as your student contract – both are sent to you at the time of your offer of a place on one of our degree programmes.

To main this scholarship, you are expected to:

• Achieve and maintain a GPA of 2.5 cumulative, carried over from the previous academic year,
• remain in good standing as a student, and
• make a positive contribution to university life.

What does it mean to make a positive contribution to university life at Richmond and why is this important?

Research indicates that students who are involved in their academic community are high achievers, develop more skills and are more confident and articulate people. Engaging in the activities we outline here also results in a more positive, fulfilling student experience.

Planning and tracking your involvement is really easy and is managed through the University’s Careers Portal operated by the Student Affairs Office.

• Volunteering for five hours a semester on one of the following:
  • Student Ambassadors

• Take part in the Richmond Leadership Academy, and complete the Bronze Award as a minimum.

At Richmond, we consider this important to your personal, social and career development, for cultural and interpersonal awareness, work experience and global citizenship. For further information please email [email protected].
