Book grant

The College’s book grant scheme awards up to 100% of the amount spent on books, electronic learning resources & academic equipment up to £150, times the duration of the course in years.

Book Grant applications will be considered on a rolling basis throughout the academic year, but not during the Summer or Christmas vacations.

Book Grants may also be used towards the cost of electronic learning resources and academic equipment.

Fast Track Language Courses

The College offers a partial reimbursement of course fees for Fast-Track courses at the Language Centre. This applies only to Fast-Track courses, and not to the General or Academic courses. In the case of Fast-Track courses, students are required to pay for the course upfront and present receipts afterwards, and will receive half the cost as a reimbursement upon successful completion of the course. Further information can be found by visiting this link.

University sports subscriptions

Applications for the sports subscription grant are processed once per year, and the deadline for submission is 12pm on Wednesday of 5th Week in Trinity Term. This Grant applies to membership subs only, and is not intended to cover the cost of kit or sports equipment.

Walter Pater grant

The Walter Pater grants are open to both JCR and MCR members and are awarded by a committee of SCR members. The grants provide funding to foster engagement with the arts at Queen’s; they do not support University arts activities nor individual activities. We would generally expect supported events to take place within Queen’s. It is expected that most grants will be not more than £500, but the case can be made for larger amounts up to £1000.

Applications must be submitted by 12 noon on Wednesday of week 2.
