Scholarships at Leeds Üniversitesi

Each year we award a number of Sports Scholarships to selected high performing athletes who demonstrate aspirations to compete at the highest levels within their chosen sport. In order to be eligible for a scholarship, applicants must be competing in a BUCS, Olympic, Paralympic and Commonwealth sports. We welcome applications from students from all backgrounds including international students.

Our scholarship programme recognises the individuality of each athlete, and that needs differ from sport to sport so we provide a unique approach that tailors our scholarships to the needs of each individual athlete.

For this coming year there are two levels of support available with ‘Sport Scholars’ having maximum access to support services, and ‘Supported Athletes’ who will benefit from a wide range of services we offer to enable athletes to train to the highest level.

This years ‘Sport Scholars’ will have unique access to our brand new ‘Performance Gap Analysis’ service, in which a dedicated  member of our sport science team will work with athletes to identify specific performance limiters and help develop effective solutions.

The services and benefits available to those given a place on the programme include:

• Premium membership at The Edge, our state-of-the-art on-campus sports facility

• Physiotherapy and sports massage support

• Performance Gap Analysis service (Sport Scholars only)

• Strength and Conditioning support from our dedicated team

• Nutritional support

• Sport Psychology support

• Performance Lifestyle mentor

• Academic liaison support
