  • Students who are offered a place via UCAS Clearing and Adjustment are not eligible for the GB Scholarship.

  • For instance, when it comes to scholarship criteria, AAC does not equal ABB. For comparison, a Distinction* at BTEC corresponds to a B and a Distinction to an A.
  • All decisions made by the Scholarship Allocation Panel on undergraduate scholarships are final. Regarding the Panel’s judgments, the University will not consider any appeals.
  • If it is discovered that a student has deceived the university about any part of their eligibility, the university has the right to revoke their scholarship and demand reimbursement of any money previously given.
