Applying to the Sport Scholarship scheme

Application Process

 

Applications for a sports scholarship should be made via the online or posted application form. All first applications must be received before 12 May in the year in which you intend to start your degree. The completed application form should be returned to the Sports Scholarship Manager at the address below.

Two references will be required. On your application form you should provide contact details for both a sporting reference and an academic reference. LJMU’s Sports Scholar Application Group will meet in May to short-list applications and make conditional scholarships offers. Conditional offers will be confirmed as soon as entry to your desired course or progression to the next level of your current course has been verified.

Should you apply to LJMU and not meet the academic requirements for your course, all Sports Scholarship offers and agreements will be null and void.

Selection for the Sports Scholarship will be based on current and past performance, commitment and determination to succeed as well as maintenance of academic standards. Please ensure you highlight your ability to achieve this in the application form.

LJMU requires notification of any current contracts with clubs or sponsors. This is to ensure that involvement in LJMU’s Sport Scholarship Scheme does not jeopardise other agreements.
