GENERAL BURSARY FUND

WTC’s General Bursary Fund is means-tested and designed to be a last resort to help make up a shortfall in student fees after you have approached other potential funders (trusts, your church etc). There are a number of grant making trusts which have supported WTC students in the past. If you have any questions about making a bursary application, please get in touch with our Finance Team by email at finance@wtctheology.org.uk.

The means-tested ceiling for the General Bursary for a household is £27,500. You can apply for the General Bursary as part of your application to study. We encourage you to also apply to other sources of funding (see Fees & FAQ for some ideas on this). As part of the bursary application process you will need to provide verifiable details of your household income. All applications are considered if they meet the bursary criteria. All applications are considered at the end of April, May, June, and July, and the bursary pot is limited. We’ll let you know whether your application has been successful after the respective meeting.

If you can find sources of matched funding your application will be considered more favourably. There are a number of grant making trusts which have supported WTC students in the past. The details for some of these can be found here

Applications will be considered that fulfil the following criteria:

A bursary of up to 40% will be considered for applicants who:

  • can give compelling evidence to show significant disadvantage that is in support of their application, and
  • can demonstrate the source of funding for the balance of the course fees, and/or
  • can demonstrate a source of matched funding

NB: This award will be for one year only. We will accept applications for each year of study but an award in subsequent years of study should not be assumed.

Students in their second year can apply for bursaries online. Please contact the Finance Team (finance@wtctheology.org.uk) for the online form to apply.

We are currently not able to grant bursaries that automatically extend to the full six years of the BA programme. However, we will accept applications for one year at a time of up to 40% and which fulfil the same criteria as the CertHE detailed above.

Students in their second years can apply for bursaries online. Please contact the Registrar (registrar@wtctheology.org.uk) for the online form to apply.

A bursary of up to 20% per annum will be considered for any applicant, and all the guidelines above apply. Please note that we will only accept applications for one year at a time.

Students in their second years can apply for bursaries online. Please contact the Registrar (registrar@wtctheology.org.uk) for the online form to apply.
