About the Newtons' Scholarship 2023 entry

The Scholarship aims to encourage and support students from lower income backgrounds on any undergraduate degree programme led by the Department of Mathematics at the University of Surrey:

- Mathematics with Music BSc (Hons)
- Financial Mathematics BSc (Hons)
Students can receive Newtons’ Undergraduate Scholarship in Mathematics in addition to scholarships as well as any other bursary, prize and award for which they are eligible, if successful.
Laura, a previous recipient, explains, “Having Newtons’ scholarship has allowed me to be financially secure throughout my time at university. This security has allowed me to focus on my studies and, because of this, I have been able to achieve grades I’m very happy with. I have not needed to find part-time work to pay for rent or living expenses. I have instead used this spare time to study an extra course in British Sign Language, have taken on the role of Course Representative this year, and have begun to learn how to drive.”
