Academic Scholarship Scheme Sample Clauses

Academic Scholarship Scheme. The university will provide an Academic Scholarship of £1,000 per annum (with the exception of any placement years) to any student admitted on the basis of at least 340 UCAS tariff points derived from 3 „A‟ levels or other A2 qualifications which are recognised for this purpose by the university as 400 UCAS tariff points from the Advanced Diploma, 32 points from the International Baccalaureate, Distinction in Art and Design Foundation course. Students must apply by 15 January 2012, accept their offer from DMU for entry in 2012/13 and proceed to Conditional Firm/Unconditional Firm status with their application prior to the annual Clearing exercise. Receipt of the Academic Scholarship in subsequent years will be dependent on the student achieving an average of at least 60% in their previous year of study. No student can receive both the Academic Scholarship and an Access Scholarship. The academic scholarship falls outside the requirements of this access agreement, in that any student, regardless of background, is eligible for the scholarship. The costs of the academic scholarship have therefore not been included list of our access-related expenditure in Annex B of this agreement. However, we include this scheme in this main document as an example of another source of support for anyone in an under-represented group who meets these criteria. Sustaining outreach activities The university‟s outreach programmes will comprise: the HE Journey – this scheme provides ongoing information, advice and guidance (IAG) for students (Year 9 to Year 13) and their parents. The scheme targets children and students in regional schools and colleges who meet widening participation criteria. It focuses on children from Year 9 and above in around 18 local schools, reaching approximately 500 people. In addition, the scheme includes the running of summer schools. The particular rationale behind this initiative is to provide support to enable students to make the best choices from GCSE onwards. The university‟s outreach experience has shown that a series of interventions, maintaining a constant presence and developing a relationship will have a greater impact on students than a one off outreach activity. Introducing students to possible future progression routes early enables them to keep their options open and make informed decisions about their future pathways. The costs of the HE Journey outreach programme will be around £90,000 per annum. Leicestershire Universities Consortium (A...
