Attract and Award Excellence Sample Clauses

Attract and Award Excellence. The quality of our University is, in no small part, driven by the quality of our students and the skills, capabilities and attitudes they bring. We believe that, regardless of background, students excel in a diverse range of fields. We will seek to attract and reward those students who excel in any field and, use their skills to make a contribution to the University by:  Retaining the ‘High Achievers Scholarship’: £1000, payable on entry to all full-time students who achieve 144 UCAS points in a single sitting.  Retaining our Entrance Excellence and On Course Scholarships of £2000 for students who excel in any area and are prepared to make some contribution to the EHU Community, for example, as an Ambassador or through supporting a club or society. This both contributes to a vibrant student community and enhances the employability skills of the individual.  Retain our Chancellor’s Scholarships: £2000 payable to students who make an outstanding contribution to University life.
