With 2026 marking the founding of the university in 1451, we are delighted to announce the 575th anniversary scholarship, empowering exceptional world-changers of tomorrow, at a pivotal moment in our history.

Open to students looking to make positive change through their chosen area of study, successful 575th anniversary world-changers will join an international community that cross centuries and span continents, at a special time of celebration and reflection.
The University’s Principal and Vice Chancellor, Professor Andy Schofield, said:
“This milestone is not just about our past, it’s about the opportunities ahead and the future impact we can make together. Not only are we one of the oldest universities in the world, but one of the first to provide greater and fairer access to education. The 575th anniversary world-changer scholarships enable us to continue that legacy, while supporting students who will shape the world in the centuries to come.”
