| Grant-making Trusts, Grants Register & Educational Grants |
These books are comprehensive sources for the many charities that support the funding of higher education in the UK.
For any of our students who are short of cash, these resources can help.
Educational Grants
Educational grants vary a lot, and they are often aimed at students from poorer backgrounds or from groups who are less-well represented at university. To find them, and to apply, start with the Directory of Grant Making Trusts in the Animation & VFX Library on the 11th Floor.
Directory of Grant-Making Trusts
Thousands of charities and trusts in the UK, some dating back hundreds of years, make grants to students for their education. There are many educational charities and trusts that offer help in case you find yourself short of funds.
Who Can Apply?
Every charity is different. You must check your eligibility for each one. By way of example, The Royal Scottish Corporation awards grants only to Scots studying in London.
More Information
To find out more about these charitable grants for education, start with these resources in the library:
Be the Spreadsheet King
Start by making lists, and write down the names, addresses and criteria of as many charities as you can manage. Treat it like a military operation: arm yourself with spreadsheets, write letters (or send emails), and tick off the ones you have already applied for. Going down this route may involve some work and quite a few application forms, but it will likely be well worth it. To see more information, follow this link.
Online Resources
For an online resource, try this link. But remember, the charities which are harder to find will generally have many fewer applications.
