The University of Strathclyde offers some of the most competitive Sport Scholarships in the UK. Regardless of Sport, all Sport Scholars receive a comprehensive support package to help them reach their sporting and academic potential.

Whilst sport scholarship support is focused toward those competing in one of our Performance Sports, we also support exceptional athletes competing in Commonwealth, Olympic and Paralympic Games Sports.
