This scholarship is granted to a full-time, first-year student (whether a high school, mature or transfer student) who is a member of a parish within the Diocese of London, and whose financial situation makes the pursuit of a university education unusually difficult. This award is intended to encourage the education of those with the potential to make a positive contribution to the Catholic community, and to the common good of society. Candidates must demonstrate extensive financial need, meet the minimum academic entrance requirements and provide a pastor letter of reference.
