Supporting Students
£8 million
£8 million is now needed for a student support fund to help with the College’s goal of continuing to attract the world’s best students at undergraduate and graduate level, regardless of their ability to pay. By June 2011 £2 million had been raised towards the £8 million target.
The College is committed to ensuring that students do not fail to complete their degree because they, or their parents, have fallen on hard times. Cuts in funding to higher education coupled with increases in fees will place additional financial burdens on students. To meet this challenge and to ensure that admissions are based solely on academic merit, Merton must stand ready to offer bursaries and grant support on a far more extensive scale than is the case at present.
The College subsidises each UK/EU undergraduate by more than £7,000 every year.
