Description
The University of Sussex offers tiered support to high-performing athletes via Sports Scholarships Scheme.
They're committed to delivering sporting excellence and support to students who display outstanding sporting ability or show the potential to reach that level in the near future. The scheme supports all students and sports that meet the application criteria and has helped hundreds of students competing in more than 20 different sports since 2003.
They want to support you as a student and as an athlete and recognise the role that mental wellbeing and academic balance has to play in your development. They are proud to work with the True Athlete Project (TAP), a unique initiative that delivers mindfulness-based programs for coaches and athletes of all sports, to offer mentoring opportunties for our Sport Scholars from world-class athletes.
