If you’re planning to begin your undergraduate journey in the UK, here’s an opportunity you can’t afford to miss. The University of East Anglia (UEA) has officially announced applications for the Jack Speller Scholarship 2026, a prestigious funding award designed to support talented students from the United Kingdom who face financial barriers to higher education.

This scholarship carries a total value of £30,000, distributed as £10,000 annually over three years, and is available for any undergraduate course starting in September 2026. While all undergraduate applicants paying UK home fees are eligible, special preference is given to students applying for the BSc (Hons) Environmental Sciences programme.

Funding Package

The Jack Speller Scholarship doesn’t just open doors; it holds them wide open. With tuition fees and maintenance support built in, recipients will have £10,000 each year to focus on their studies without the financial burden. That’s £30,000 in total support—a transformative package for a single deserving scholar each year.

Eligibility Criteria

To be considered, applicants must:

• Be a UK home fees student.
• Come from a household with income below £30,000.
• Show genuine financial need.
• Demonstrate strong academic potential and clear future aspirations.
• Hold an offer of study at UEA for September 2026.

The scholarship is open across all faculties (Humanities, Medicine and Health, Science, and Social Sciences), but with a preference for those in Environmental Science. Importantly, candidates cannot be in receipt of any other donor-funded scholarships or awards.

Application Process and Deadline

Applications are now open, and interested students must complete the official scholarship application form. The final deadline is Friday, 1 May 2026. Applicants will only be considered if they already hold an offer to study at UEA.

This is a rare and highly competitive opportunity for one outstanding student who can demonstrate both need and ambition. If you’re dreaming of studying at UEA and want to lift the financial weight off your shoulders, this scholarship could be the breakthrough you’ve been waiting for.
