Final chance to win one of ten £1,000 grants

Have you applied for the Brighter Futures Grant yet? 

To help support UoB students with living and study costs, all students have the chance to win one of ten grants, each worth £1,000 thanks to our collaboration with Santander Universities.  

Applications for the Brighter Futures Grant close at 11pm on Thursday 5 December. 

If you haven’t yet applied, here’s how: 

  1. Register for the Santander Open Academy- a free online learning platform.
  2. Follow the verification link in your confirmation email.
  3. Log in and choose ‘Get Started’ to complete your entry into the Brighter Futures Grants programme. From the menu you need to select University of Birmingham.   

All students are eligible to enter, including undergraduates, postgraduates, part-time and full-time students, and you don’t need to bank with Santander to apply. 

Winners will be announced in the new year. 

Whether you win or not, you’ll still have access to browse the Santander Open Academy website for free, on-demand learning content that can help support you in your studies. 

More information on other funding support as well as resources and tips to help you manage your finances can be found on our Cost of Living pages.
