University Academy 92 (UA92) Today is launching its scholarships “unlock your size” to support students from disadvantaged backgrounds.
Two full scholarships of tuition fees will be awarded to students demonstrating resilience and determination despite significant challenges. This is the first year that students were able to apply directly for the scholarships.
The scholarships are specially designed to support students from the lowest areas of participation of the United Kingdom who have demonstrated exceptional resilience in overcoming personal challenges to pursue higher education.
UA92 has a proud history of supporting students in less advantageous areas with 18.6% of its candidates from the lowest (polar4 quintile 1) – sector participation areas.
Gary Neville, co-founder of the UA92 (photo above), said: “It is the day of level A results, which is an emotional moment for many young people and one of the causes of stress is the financial pressures that accompany higher education.
“We believe that everyone deserves the opportunity to unlock their grandeur independently of their history or their circumstances.
“These scholarships aim to recognize the courage and determination of students who have faced real challenges and found the strength to continue to continue their dreams.”
Sara Prowse, CEO of UA92, said: “The unlocking scholarships of your large large people represent the continuous commitment of the UA92 to make higher education accessible to all students, in particular those who could otherwise consider the University as an affordable option.
“Each scholarship will cover the full cost of tuition fees for the duration of the beneficiary's program – three years for standard or two years for accelerated programs.”
Rejecting the obsolete dependence on end -of -year exams, the UA92 focuses on continuous evaluation through courses, projects, reports and presentations, allowing students to demonstrate the capacity through a set of sustained work. Its innovative block learning model allows students to study an intensively material for six weeks before moving on, while the single half -day calendar – offers flexibility for part -time work and personal commitments.
UA92 is a higher education establishment co -founded by Gary Neville, the “92” class and Lancaster University. UA92 adopts a deliberately different approach to higher education, placing career support for career at the center of each degree.
