In response to the war in Ukraine and other conflicts around the world, a grant of up to £1m has been made available to students fleeing from warzones and persecution.
The money is being made available by the Newcastle University Development Trust - a registered charity that is independent of Newcastle University.
Part of this support will be used to fund additional Sanctuary Scholarships for people who have been forcibly displaced from their home country as a result of war and conflict. And those who wish to study an undergraduate, postgraduate taught, or postgraduate research degree at the University have the opportunity to do so.
