The programme is open to all students, irrespective of nationality, year of study or academic course. Applications open in November each year, and scholarships are awarded at the start of the academic year in August for the upcoming academic year. Focus is given to sports within the BUCS programme and Olympic and Paralympic sports, with other sports considered on a case-by-case basis.
