How do I apply?

• Scholars will be expected to write an annual report about their academic and social activities, and achievements at the University.
• Receipt of the award in subsequent years is subject to satisfactory academic progress.
• Applicants should be aware that competition for the scheme is very high and the University does not have additional funding for those candidates who are not offered a scholarship
