Abstract

This good practice guide looks at how higher education institutions (HEIs) can increase awareness, knowledge and takeup of bursaries and scholarships. It is based on the findings of research commissioned by the Office for Fair Access (OFFA)1 and carried out by Professor Claire Callender of Birkbeck, University of London, and David Wilkinson and Rebecca Hopkin of the National Institute of Economic and Social Research in 2008/09. The good practice is divided into six main sections: • Promoting bursaries and scholarships • Targeting your information and awareness-raising activities • How to increase awareness, knowledge and take-up of bursaries and scholarships • Providing comprehensive bursary and scholarship information • Disseminating bursary and scholarship information • Maximising bursary take-up • Maximising the impact of bursaries.
