The ÐÂÔÂÖ±²¥ (RVC) is committed to supporting under-represented students into higher education and to make applications to our institution.  We believe in the importance of being able to access on campus activities as they allow prospective students to explore study options available to them, as well as receive advice and guidance; all of which enables students to make informed choices about the educational future.

The RVC’s Free School Meals (FSM) Travel Bursary offers financial support for prospective students (in Years 11–13), from under-represented backgrounds, and a supporter to claim up to £150 to reimburse travel costs incurred whilst travelling to on campus event(s). Eligibility for this bursary is targeted to support under-represented individuals, as we believe students from every background should be able to access advice, guidance and support in order to help them progress to and benefit from the transformative experience of higher education.

*The RVC is dedicated to being an organisation in which equity, diversity and inclusion underpin all that we do. Eligibility for this bursary is targeted to support under-represented individuals, as we believe students from every background should be able to access advice, guidance and support in order to help them progress to and benefit from the transformative experience of higher education. For more information on our commitment to improve equality of opportunity for under-represented groups please read our Access & Participation Plan (APP):
