- you made Sheffield Hallam your firm choice on your UCAS application

There is no limit on the number of scholarships offered each year. All students who qualify for the funding will receive it. As this is a scholarship, you do not have to pay the money back.
Unlike a fee waiver, the scholarship is paid to you in cash so you can choose what you spend it on, whether it is books for your course, living expenses (such as food and rent), or payment of tuition fees.
