The University of Westminster is an international
university with a diverse community of students
and staff in the heart of a global city. We are
very proud of our Scholarship Scheme, which
supports students from diverse backgrounds
from all over the world. The 2014/15
academic year marks the thirteenth anniversary
of this scheme. Our investment in scholarships
has helped a great many students realise their
potential. The scholarships have enabled them
not only to secure a better future for themselves,
but also to make positive contributions to
their countries and communities. While the
programme continually expands and evolves,
the fundamental aim remains the same: to
enable academically gifted but financially
challenged students to benefit from the
educational opportunities we offer.
External support for our scholarships programme
plays a key role in its on-going success and our
partnerships with donors, whether individuals,
businesses or charities, is vital. We continue to
work with existing partners, such as Santander
Universities, to diversify ways in which students
can be supported, with new awards aimed
at encouraging greater international student
travel and financing entrepreneurial initiatives.
Attracting further funding from outside of the
University is essential to expand the reach of the
scholarships scheme and we shall welcome more
partnerships in the coming year.
Within the University, our Scholarships
Team continues to improve the scholarship
application process and to expand our range
of awards. We look forward to 2014/15 being
another successful year and to welcoming new
students and new partners to the University’s
Scholarship Scheme.

SUPPORTING EXCELLENCE IN NEEd
EdUCATION TRANSFORMING
FUTURES
Education has an unrivalled ability to change
lives, both for those who have the opportunity
to study, and for those who benefit from
their knowledge. Making knowledge widely
accessible was one of the founding principles
of the Royal Polytechnic institution, University
of Westminster’s original incarnation. it is
a principle that we adhere to today, with
a student body that is incredibly diverse in
culture, nationality and background.
Philanthropy has played a vital role in
supporting our students from the very
beginning, when quintin Hogg made his
educational endowment to establish the Regent
Street Polytechnic. We remain dedicated to
making it possible for outstanding students
who could not access higher education
without our help to realise their potential.
Our students explore the fields of architecture
and the built environment, creative industries,
business, law, social sciences, humanities
and science and technology. Our staff and
alumni have made their mark in many fields,
and our current students will go on to shape
aspects of professional life in the future and
change lives for the better, both in the Uk and
internationally. Now you can play a key role
in that change.
ONE OF THE LEAdING UNIVERSITY
SCHOLARSHIPS SCHEME IN THE UK
Today, about 2,000 students at the University
benefit from scholarships every year. Our
scholarships scheme has been praised for
its diverse, flexible and innovative approach
to supporting students. A scrupulous award
process based on clear criteria is followed by
continual pastoral care for beneficiary students.
The scheme’s success has been recognised
by the Award for Outstanding Support for
Overseas Students from the Times Higher
Education magazine.
HELP SUPPORT OUR STUdENTS
in 2013/14 we had to turn down 3,500
scholarship applicants. We want to address
this by providing more scholarships each year,
and we need philanthropic support to achieve
that goal.
Now more than ever, maintaining our ability
to change lives through access to higher
education will depend on philanthropic support
for scholarships. By helping us to extend the
scholarships scheme, you will be providing
opportunities for a diverse and vibrant student
community. you will be changing lives and
enabling them to improve the lives of many
others, at a time of uncertainty for all, and when
financial limits may prevent many promising
students from pursuing higher education.
