University of Leeds: Means Tested Scholarship (REJECTION)

Hey guys,

I was recently rejected for the means tested scholarship at the uni of Leeds.

I’m fine with this, but im worried. I met a large majority of all their criteria and they said one reason for rejection may be that I don’t hold an offer at the uni for 2024.

Does this mean they have my grades already? Have I not gotten the scholarship because Ive been rejected due to my grades?

Any advice would be massively appreciated, especially the harsh truth for my own anxiety rn.

Thank you!

Hi there,

We can only advise on Student Finance on this page. We would suggest speaking to the university further for clarification.

Thanks,
Claire

If you have taken A levels, unis won't have your results yet. Call Leeds and ask them to clarify why they have stated you don't hold an offer.

it would be a breach of the embargo period to allude to your results at the moment. (In fact, any mailings at the moment should specifically state that you shouldn’t infer anything about your results).

In any case, as noted in your other thread, there’s almost no chance they’ve had a chance to look at them yet.

Same I’m really nervous lol, I applied for microbiology. But I’ve heard Universities are more likely to accept students even if they haven’t met their grades due to the lack of international students, so hopefully it all works out.
