West Midlands students invited to apply for fully funded scholarship 2026

Millennium Point Trust has opened applications for a 2026 scholarship, inviting ambitious West Midlands students to apply for a fully funded undergraduate degree at Birmingham City University.

Delivered through the Millennium Point Charitable Trust, the scholarship removes tuition fees for one successful applicant, enabling them to focus fully on their studies and future career without the burden of student debt.

Now in its 12th year, the programme reflects a sustained partnership between Millennium Point Trust and Birmingham City University, designed to support students whose ideas, drive, and potential can make a lasting difference to the West Midlands.

The scholarship has previously supported students across disciplines including computer science, real estate, and engineering, with recipients going on to apply their learning to some of the region’s most pressing challenges, from digital skills gaps to housing and regeneration.

Abbie Vlahakis, CEO of Millennium Point, said:

“Each year, the scholarship reminds us just how much talent exists across the West Midlands. Our role is to remove barriers where we can, so that potential is not limited by circumstance. This programme is about backing people early and giving them the space to develop skills that will shape the region’s future.”

All commercial activity at Millennium Point feeds directly back into its charitable work, helping to fund scholarships, education initiatives, and support for organisations across the region. Over the last decade, this approach has helped direct more than £45 million back into the West Midlands through financial support, discounted rents, and long-term investment in learning and opportunity.

Applications for the 2026 Millennium Point Trust Scholarship are now open. Full eligibility criteria and application details can be found at: www.millenniumpoint.org.uk/scholarship
