London Metropolitan University Sanctuary Scholarship

The scholarship is open to those who are considering full-time undergraduate or postgraduate study at London Met and will support up to two students. If you are successful in your application for the scholarship, the benefits will include: a full tuition fee waiver, a maintenance grant equivalent to the maximum government Maintenance Loan for each academic year (currently set at £13,022), a designated academic mentor to offer support and guidance throughout. Where maintenance support could adversely affect government aid, for example in relation to those with asylum seeker status, it may be possible to provide support in kind. The scholarship will be awarded to two students who are:

applying to study a degree programme at London Metropolitan University (including four-year degrees that include a foundation year)
seeking asylum or humanitarian protection in the UK, or a dependant or partner of someone seeking asylum who has one of the following statuses:

Humanitarian protection status – a residual form of protection available to those not eligible for refugee status, who do not have a right to subsidiary protection but cannot be removed from national territory because of objective and serious personal situations
Discretionary/limited leave to remain on human rights grounds including UASC (unaccompanied asylum-seeking children) – granted to people who are able to prove to the Home Office that their circumstances are compelling on compassionate grounds or are such that they can be granted leave outside UK immigration rules
Submitted an asylum claim in the UK – a person who has asked for asylum in the UK and is waiting for a decision from the government on that claim

And: are unable to access UK government Student Finance (tuition fee loans or maintenance loans/grants) by virtue of their immigration status. Recipients must progress to the next year of study to be eligible for the scholarship the following year.
