What achievements are you most proud of? These could be academic, practical or personal. Perhaps you hold a position of responsibility in or out of school, or have undertaken work experience or voluntary work, do you have a hobby that’s allowed you to shine? Do you have a plan for the future? What’s that one problem in the world right now that you’re itching to solve? What is it that you like to achieve, and how do you think you’d use the knowledge and experience you’ll gain through the scholarship to help get there?
How would a free degree change your life outside of reducing student debts? Would this scholarship give you opportunities that you wouldn’t have had? How do you think that you could benefit from the support the scholarship offers and what would it mean to you on a personal level were you to win the scholarship?
We’re looking for an answer that includes those personal qualities that you will use as a STEM practitioner during your studies or in your STEM career. It may be that you are excellent at planning and organising STEM events or you are a good problem solver and will spend hours researching on how to solve problems. Let us know what personal qualities you have that will have a positive impact going forward.
“STEM” is the umbrella term to describe science, technology, engineering and maths. In this question, we’re looking for evidence of your passion and interest in the subject outside of formal education. For example, if you want to study coding, have you worked on any personal projects? Taken part in hackathons? Maybe you’ve taught yourself Python. If you want to study civil engineering then maybe you’ve designed your own suspension bridge? Taken part in an after-school engineering club or competition?
It doesn’t have to be a big thing, even if it’s learning in your own time or having a family member already in that chosen career who you actively approached for a greater understanding. Show us that you are passionate and have an invested interest in your subject.
