SUPPORTING THE RVC
Meet the Scholars
In 2019 the RVC launched five new聽undergraduate scholarships funded by donations from
supporters and alumni. These scholarships are aimed at supporting excellent students who
would benefit from financial support during their course and they have had a fantastic impact
on the recipients. Congratulations to all our scholars, here are some of the 2020/21 selection.
