The University is pleased to announce the launch of the Humanitarian Response Fund to support students impacted by conflict or humanitarian crises. This initiative, led by the University International Response Task Force, provides financial assistance to those in need.
Purpose
The University has pledged £100,000 to aid current students facing financial difficulties due to conflicts or crises in their home countries. This fund will help cover unexpected shortfalls in living costs and exceptional caring responsibilities where the incident directly impacts the student’s ability to continue their studies.
Value
Grants will support living costs up to £5,000, in addition to any College awards and the University's standard financial assistance award of £3000 for the academic year 2024–25. Students are strongly encouraged to apply for Financial Assistance Funds and Crane Fund.
