Scholarships & Additional Funding
Additional funding from Leeds Beckett University
Beckett Achievement Award
The Beckett Achievement Award is a one-off cash award for undergraduate students entering the University in September 2017 who achieve an average 60% or more across Level 4 with no repeat year required, and then fully enrol for Level 5. Students will be identified using data in university systems, and as such do not need to apply. Payment will be made to eligible students before the Christmas vacation falling in Level 5.
Placement Support 2017
The support for students accessing placements is intended to assist full-time undergraduate students commencing studies from September 2017 that require financial support towards travel and/or accommodation for either a short (e.g. 4-8 weeks) or sandwich/year-long placement where support is not available from elsewhere.

Unfortunately, you are only allowed to defer for one year. If you have extenuating circumstances that may require your deferral for a further year then please email us at ucasadmissions@leedsbeckett.ac.uk with full details of those circumstances so that your request can be considered. Please also provide your full name, UCAS personal ID and course.
If you applied through UCAS, it is likely that we will receive some, if not all of your examination results via UCAS. If you have been asked to send your results in to us, this will be detailed on your offer letter/UCAS Track. It is very important that you do so as soon as possible after receiving your results. They can be faxed to us on 0113 812 3144 or scanned to ucasadmissions@leedsbeckett.ac.uk if you applied via UCAS. If you applied directly to us, please send them to directadmissions@leedsbeckett.ac.uk. Please make sure you have put your name and Personal ID/Leeds Beckett number on the correspondence to avoid any delays in confirming your place with us.
