UK Scholarships

2021/2022 Scholarships
One of the first universities to introduce the liberal arts to the UK, Richmond pioneered this multi-disciplinary approach. Our new Liberal Arts Award which is available to UK students from Fall 2021 celebrates our liberal arts approach, which provides students with diversity, choice and freedom.

We offer a generous scholarship for your entire duration at the University, if you are eligible. The Scholarship can be combined with Student Finance England Loans and other sources of personal funding.

Scholarship
Qualifications
Amount
Liberal Arts Award Subject to meeting university entry requirements, Direct Applications and UCAS £3,085 p.a.

The Richmond University Difference

  • Our scholarships mean that UK students can leave Richmond with lower debt levels than if they attend many other UK universities
  • Based on tuition fees of £9,250 in UK universities each year over a three year degree programme, most students will have a loan of £27,750 when they leave (£9,250 x 3)
  • At Richmond, where UK students may be eligible for a Liberal Arts Award, this means they can save £3,085 each year off the tuition fees which are £9,250, taking out a loan if needed for the balance of £6,165. Based on a three year programme at Richmond their total loan (excluding interest) would be £6,165 x 3, £18,495 (saving £9,255). Over a four year programme, their total loan (excluding interest) would be £6,165 x 4, £24,660 (saving £3,090)
  • Either way, our Liberal Arts Award represents great value for money, saving UK students anywhere between £3,090 and £9,255 over many other UK universities

The figures and estimated debt reduction indicated above are based on the Liberal Arts Award. This Award is offered for Fall 21/Spring 2022 Academic Year entry only and may be subject to change in future intakes.

Terms and Conditions: 1.Continuation of the Liberal Arts Award after the first year is conditional on the student achieving a cumulative GPA of at least 2.5 from the previous academic year, remaining in good standing and making a positive contribution to University life. 2.The government is currently reviewing fees in the UK, and the University reserves the right to alter the scholarship offer should the fees be reduced. The University will still endeavour to provide scholarships that provide students value for money and help students reduce student fee debt. Currently the Liberal Arts Award is based upon a fee of £9,250. 3.The SFE calculation does not include other scholarships from other Universities, however, Richmond University offers its scholarship on an annual basis. 4.The final calculation excludes SFE interest and is based on 48 months & 36 months comparison, it is acknowledged that universities will vary with start and completion times. 5.The scholarships may vary if fee changes. 6.Richmond has sole discretion to assign, vary or withdraw this award. 7.We reserve the right to adjust the value, volume and eligibility criteria of our scholarships.

Student Finance England (Tuition Loan)

UK Government loans for higher education study are administered by Student Finance England (SFE). There are two types of Student Finance England Loans.

  1. Tuition Loans contribute towards the cost of tuition only
  2. Maintenance Loans cover living costs such as accommodation, books and bills

The tuition fee loans for English and EU nationals £6,165 per year for tuition fees. Alternative and private universities like Richmond are not publicly funded. The Government recognizes the academic quality of private not for profit universities but the maximum tuition loan amount for students studying at a private not-for-profit university is £6,165. This loan amount will not cover the entire undergraduate tuition fee.

Richmond offers scholarships and advice on alternative source of funding that help you to fund your studies.
