AR Scholarships
We are extremely honoured that one of our Anonymous Donors shares our vision for equipping our students with everything they need to achieve their dreams and has generously gifted several scholarships to talented individuals at Salford and previously supported the Salford Advantage Scholarships.
The AR scholarships not only ease their financial burdens but instils a sense of pride in the students as the support of a donor encourages them to achieve their potential.
Put simply, the generosity of our Anonymous Donor really has changed lives and we are grateful for their support.
AR scholarship in digital media
Our Anonymous Donor launched the AR Scholarship in Digital Media for the 2020/21 academic year, providing one student completing a BA (Hons) Digital Media degree with financial security to enable them to focus on their studies.
Megan
Megan is the inaugural recipient of the AR Scholarship in Digital Media and was extremely honoured to receive the award:
"Your scholarship will allow me to pursue career opportunities that may arise as a result of the course ... and to purchase any equipment or external training I may require along the way .... Your help also means that I do not have to worry about working too much to make money and I can ensure that my very part-time job stays just that which is fantastic! Thank you, once again, for your continued support."
AR Performance Graduate Scholarship
During the 2020/21 academic year, our Anonymous Donor also launched the AR Performance Graduate Scholarship to support three Salford graduates as they embark upon a career in the creative industries.
