Unite Foundation Grants to Universities - 27/28

Unite Foundation Grants to Universities - 27/28 - 29/30

The Unite Foundation Scholarship HEI Grant scheme started with 5 x 'early adopters' in 2026/27 cycle and provides a 75% funding grant to selected university partners. The grant, in combination with a 25% university investment, can provide up to 4 Unite Foundation Scholarship awards within the selected university partner's own managed accommodation. This expression of interest form captures necessary information on volumes, values, inflationary rates and contacts to deliver a Unite Foundation Scholarship but is non-binding. At the appropriate juncture a funding contract will be issued at which point a deadline for finalising said contract will be notified - this is to ensure all budget for scholarships is expended during the cycle.

The timeline for 26/27 application process:

15th May - deadline for expressions of interest in this portal
June - UF selection of participants
June - October - contract finalisation
