University Sport Scholars

Our prestigious Sports Scholarship Programme supports elite athletes as they combine academic and sporting excellence during their time at university.

Here at the University of Leeds we are committed to ensuring our athletes are able to compete at the highest level, whilst studying for a world-class degree.

Each year we award a number of Sports Scholarships to selected high performing athletes competing in BUCS sports and who demonstrate aspirations to progress and achieve high levels of success within their chosen sport.
