The Atherton Scholarship

You may be eligible for £2,500 if you study a course within our Business School and can demonstrate how you would use the scholarship to support career-enhancing activities, such as an internship or placement.

This scholarship may be relevant if you face financial difficulty during your studies. You are considered based on the financial circumstances demonstrated in your application statement and other applicant data available to the University. You are eligible if you are a UK student, but preference is given to students from the Tees Valley.

Courses include:

• Accounting & Economics
• Aviation & Tourism
• Business Management & Enterprise
• Human Resource Management
• Marketing & Events

Eligibility

To apply for one of these scholarships you must:

• be applying for the first year of a three-year course, not a foundation year
• demonstrate your high academic potential
• outline clear plans and ambitions in your application to get involved in career-enhancing activities, such as an internship or placement, detailing how these would require a scholarship
• outline your financial circumstances and how the scholarship funds will enable your studies.
