The Student Success Endowment exists to level the playing field in Higher Education, providing young people from low-income households with the financial support they need to access equal opportunity at university.
Building a future beyond barriers
University is about so much more than studying for a degree – it is a place to grow skills, gain confidence and make new connections. Unfortunately, many students face financial barriers at University that can prevent them from reaching their full potential.
Enter The Student Success Endowment, an income-generating investment that will channel all dividends it accrues into an Opportunity Fund for students from low-income backgrounds. This will enable us to nurture the most deserving students with an annual opportunity bursary – which they can use to say YES to the same extra-curricular opportunities and experiences as their peers – paving the way beyond financial barriers and towards equal opportunity.
The Student Success Endowment
Endowments are particularly meaningful as they offer a dependable, perpetual source of funding. Engaging with The Student Success Endowment at Nottingham Trent University offers myriad benefits to disadvantaged students, to society, and to the world in which we live and work.
