The BAME in Higher Education Ambition Scholarship for 2024 University of Kent graduates

Available to current Kent undergraduates with a 2.1 or first class degree continuing to Master’s study at any of Kent’s locations (UK fee paying students)

£5,000 towards the cost of tuition fees for full-time UK students who identify as Black, Asian or Minority Ethnic (BAME). Kent understands, at times, that ‘BAME’ does not fully reflect the complexity or nuances of diversity within the UK. Here, we use ‘BAME’ to highlight racial identities critically underrepresented within Higher Education—a focus this scholarship is intended to address.
