an enrolled student of the University engaged on at least a part time course at undergraduate, post graduate or research level or

a prospective student of the University awaiting confirmation of award of a place or in exceptional circumstances, a former student of the University who graduated within the last 12 months

Competing at a level that will not only increase the standards of athletes within RGU but also the level of representation for the university within the sporting landscape.
