The University has a major and strategic commitment to Widening Participation within its student population and seeks both to "confront inequality" and "celebrate diversity." We are proud of our long tradition of seeking a more inclusive society through a commitment to diversity in our students.
We recruit more students from groups under-represented in Higher Education than the average University, but we do not just leave it there, as crucially we have very high success rates for our students as they progress through courses.
The University is investing £200,000 in a range of scholarships for students, including the 'University of Bradford Investing in Community and Excellence Scholarships', which will award £1,500 a year to students who have made outstanding achievements in sport, the arts, volunteering, enterprise and the environment.
We need your help to increase the scholarship opportunities available, and to ensure that a Bradford education is open to anyone, regardless of financial situation or background.
Perhaps you would like to commemorate a loved one by creating a scholarship and naming it in their honour. Or maybe you want to ensure that a Bradford student is given the chance to transform their life by gaining a qualification that will shape their future career.
