What our previous winner have said:
“Winning the competition has eased some of the stress of university for me, as I can put that money towards my rent for the next couple of months and have money left over in case of any emergencies.”
“Winning the Santander Universities Brighter Future Grant is a fantastic bonus. It has given me the opportunity to consider other development courses that will help me to expand my knowledge and meet my future career aspirations. Huge thanks to Santander and the University of Liverpool for this!”
“Student life can be expensive, paying for essential items such as your accommodation, a computer and even food. I have also recently put a deposit down for the house that I will be staying in in second-year, so this money will help so much towards all of this, and I can’t express how grateful I am.”
“Winning the Santander Bright Future Grant means a lot to me—like many students, I have found university financially challenging, and this grant will help ensure my academic ambitions are not limited by financial constraints.”
There are 10 prizes available, just for University of Liverpool students – don’t miss out on this amazing opportunity. Enter by 15 May for a chance to win!
