2022 Distance Learning Merit Scholarships at University of Leicester

For the academic year 2022–2023, applications are being accepted by the University ofLeicester. For eligible UK and international applicants who are willing to pay the course fee, this Distance Learning Merit Scholarships offers a reduction on the tuition.

As Leicester, Leicestershire and Rutland University College, the university was established in 1921. Thomas Fielding Johnson, a local businessman, donated the land for the university in order to provide a living memorial for all area residents who gave their lives in the First World War. The university's motto, Ut vitam habeant, which means "so that they may have life," reflects this. Exams for degrees granted by the University of London's external program were taken by students who were initially admitted to the college in 1921. The organization changed its name to University College, Leicester in 1927, and 30 years later the college received its Royal Charter. It now has the authority to grant its own degrees and the status of a university.
