Northumbria University is renowned for the calibre of its business-ready graduates. Our alumni network has over 246,000 graduates based in 178 countries worldwide in a range of sectors, our alumni are making a real impact on the world.
Our AlumniAt Northumbria we provide scholarships to remove financial barriers to achieving a university degree. Students use this support to help fund their tuition fees, living costs, field trips, specialist equipment, travel, and experiential learning opportunities.
Approximately 40% of our students are from under-represented backgrounds, and 65% are from North-East England where school attainment and routes into Higher Education are the lowest in the UK.
Fear of tuition fee debt and lessening access to wider finance to support living costs, often means that students from under-represented backgrounds are less likely to consider university as a choice. Supporting a student with a scholarship to study at foundation, undergraduate or postgraduate level provides crucial assistance with living costs. It can also reduce the over reliance on part-time work, allowing students to focus on their studies, participate in extra-curricular activities and undertake work-related learning.
Northumbria is a research-rich, business-focused, professional university with a global reputation for academic excellence. We conduct ground-breaking, impactful research that is responsive to the needs of individuals and communities within the areas of science & technology, health & well-being, and economic, social & cultural development.
Northumbria University is in the Times Higher Education UK top 30 for research power, based on the results of the most recent Research Excellence Framework. Additionally, we are ranked among world’s top 150 universities aged 50 years or under, according to the 2023 Times Higher Education World University Rankings.
With your support, we can:
To recognise your support, the University will work with you to choose a name for your scholarship. You can select the discipline closest to your degree or business interest, or we can provide advice on where there is the greatest need.
Donations can be made as a single payment or in instalments.
Through tax effective charitable giving, you can claim back the difference between the higher rates of tax and the basic rate on the total value of your donation. For example, if you pay tax at the 40% rate, a donation of £1,600 (+ Gift Aid = £2,000) allows you to recover £400, so the donation costs you £1,200 net, and Northumbria University receives £2,000.
“Engineering has always sparked my curiosity because it is rare in my culture and religion for women to study this field. I thought it would be ideal to explore something new and make a change. Receiving this scholarship has made this possible and I'm very grateful and appreciative.”
Ayesha, Rider Levett Bucknall Scholarship recipient
“Since receiving the scholarship award back in my first year of the Design for Industry course, I have seen my grades gradually increase. The award has allowed me to focus more on my workload than any financial burdens that going to university typically has on students.”
Hannah, Flowers Scholarship recipient
“Thank you for my scholarship award. I had been contemplating taking on extra work during the upcoming Christmas season to address my financial difficulties. With the scholarship, I can dedicate my undivided attention to my studies, and I couldn't be happier or more thankful for this chance.”
