Financial Aid Services

The provision of financial aid to students should have a fourfold aim and is covered by the following objectives:

• To recruit top students to the College
• To promote and reward academic excellence at the College
• To enable students who are both financially needy and academically deserving to gain access to the college.
• To provide a holistic "basket of financial support" which can assist in eliminating barriers to success by covering the "total cost" of study to the student, including costs such as transport and accommodation.
