Loughborough University Sanctuary PhD Scholarship Requirements

To be eligible for the Loughborough University Sanctuary PhD Scholarship, applicants must satisfy the following conditions:

  • Currently hold an offer of study (conditional or unconditional) for a postgraduate research (PhD) programme at Loughborough University.
  • Show evidence of exceptional academic achievement relative to opportunity and disruption
  • Are considered an ‘at-risk scholar’
    • It is difficult to provide a definitive definition for an ‘at-risk scholar’, but the University works to a framework which asks:
    • Is your home located in a region of conflict/war such that your life or the lives of your family are in danger, or such that you could be forcibly displaced due to persecution?
    • Are you, or your family, at risk of imminent imprisonment, injury, death or persecution?
    • If you are currently in the UK but were to return to your home country, your life or safety would be at much greater risk.
