Closed petition Fund Universities to offer scholarships for every degree programme

Closed on

The Government should provide universities with funding to be used to create at least one scholarship for a BAME student from lower income backgrounds on every course. Universities should be encouraged to review the scholarships they already have in place, urging donors to adapt their schemes.

This would recognise the historic disadvantages BAME people have faced, and help to address racial inequality in the UK.
