Hello
I've had a little hunt online and to no hope - found nothing I was looking for. I would like to study Computer Science at King's and my expected grades on results day will be A*A*A in Maths, Further Maths and Computer Science respectively. On the kings website there are no bursaries that I can apply for
They're all for medical, law and such. I will live from home (Just on the border of north London, however outside London) and will commute to UNI via trains/tube.
I did apply and get accepted for the first year of student finance - but did NOT apply for the maintenance loan, my parents will fortunately supply the difference for this.
Costs:
I calculated that my train fares will total about £2000 a year and have no clue about how expensive books and such will cost. Uni fees are £9000 a year for 3 years and 1 Year in placements which will cost less than £9000 I believe (I think I read somewhere it would be £2500) and finally, I would need to buy pieces of tech such as computer components etc for my home PC for projects and the like (Ill say £1000 a year for this)
In all I'm looking at £41,000+ for going to UNI at Kings. However, I will be working part time and will be getting subsidised by my parents (or at least for the first year I will be, I may end up taking a maintenance loan if I deem necessary)
My parents between them earn just a little under £30,000 a year - with my father being self employed and my mother a nurse. This is the household income too. If it helps, I went to a public mixed school with 1 or 2 students a year reaching russell group UNI's.
So let me explain, the whole point of this post: Can someone help me find/show me some bursaries and scholarships I could potentially apply to based on results on results day? Things to cover train fares, book costs, maybe even my hardware for my PC. Or even potentially scholarships, which could cover some/all of my UNI fees? About 6 months ago I found a few bursaries that are for students who achieve excellent results, however since then, cannot find any!
Thankyou for your help,
