welcome

Welcome to our internet site. We hope that you will find all the information you will need about the Trust and how to make an application.

The Trustees are pleased to announce the programme of awards for the 2010-11 academic year. The Postgraduate Bursary and the valuable SCAST Postgraduate Research Scholarship have both been extended and will continue to provide support to those pursuing their education to the highest level. The updated programme continues to increase the emphasis on those beneficiaries who were among the earliest attending contributing schools.

We are always happy to talk to you or respond to your email, however, before you get in touch please do read the website. We are always happy to help and to provide advice where we can.

Our Annual Review for 2008-09 and financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2008 are both available under documents in the top menu.

Section 6 - Postgraduate Bursary Application

We have received a number of enquiries stating that Universities are unable to countersign section 6 of the application in advance of submitting the application and asking how to proceed. We are already aware of this and had already made full provision for such situations. The instructions in section 6 state - "If you have not already registered with an Institution, a pro forma letter is attached to this application form which you may pass to your University to have them confirm directly with us after you have submitted this application." In other words submit your application by the deadline and obtain the confirmation in due course. Late application WILL NOT be accepted. Applications which are received on time but are incomplete IN THIS ONE ASPECT ONLY will be accepted. Should you selected to receive an award it will, of course, not be paid out until this certification is actually received.

Other matters

We received more than 20 applications for the three Postgraduate Reseach Scholarships on offer this year.  The Trustees would like to thank all who applied for the time and effort they clearly put in making their applications.  The quality of the applications was such that the Trustees faced a very difficult choice in first short-listing applicants for interview and then in selecting those to receive the award.  All successful applicants have now been informed.

Before contacting us with queries please be sure to read the website and if you do contact us please be sure to tell us which contributing school you attended.  The list can be found in the "about" section of the website.
