John Lennon Memorial Scholarship

The John Lennon Memorial Scholarships were set up by a trust fund endowed in the University for the provision of scholarships in the memory of John Lennon. The award is intended to support students from Merseyside who might be in financial need and enhance, among other things, awareness of global problems and environmental issues.

Eligibility

If you are a current or prospective Home postgraduate (taught and research), either born in or with very strong family connections to Merseyside and who has an academic offer from the University of Liverpool, you are eligible to apply. The award is available to all subject areas studied on the main University campus.

The John Lennon Memorial Scholarship is available to all prospective and current Home (UK) and EU students. Please note that international students and students from the Liverpool School of Tropical Medicine are not eligible for application to this scholarship.

In accordance with the donor's intentions, priority will be given to applicants whose permanent residence is Merseyside or who have a significant period of residence (independent of study). All prospective postgraduate students must have accepted an offer to study at the University of Liverpool. Awards will be made on the basis of financial need and academic merit, and applicants should demonstrate an active and interest in global, community and environmental issues.
