36 new Stormzy Scholarships to be awarded to Black students over next 3 years, bringing total number to 81 over eight years (2018-26)
‘The Stormzy Effect’ continues: Applications from UK Black students on the rise, with 141 Black students admitted in 2022 (131% increase compared to 2018)
Since its launch in 2018, the Stormzy Scholarship has provided financial support to 32 UK Black students helping to transform their University experience. This began with two students each year, before the scheme was expanded in 2021. Stormzy’s #Merky Foundation in partnership with HSBC UK will provide scholarships to at least 10 Black students starting their studies in autumn 2023.
Over 400 UK Black students have arrived to take up their courses at Cambridge in the past three years. There is however still more work to be done to ensure that UK Black students not only apply to study at the University, but feel at home here and achieve their full potential.

The scholarships are non-repayable and will cover the full cost of tuition fees and provide a maintenance grant, which will significantly reduce the need for recipients to take out government or commercial loans. This support will be available to recipients for the three or four years of their undergraduate course. For 2023-24, the total award to each student for the year will be worth £20,000. Receipt of this award will not affect eligibility for a Cambridge Bursary.
To apply for the Stormzy Scholarship, you need to complete the online application by 3 September 2023 (11.59pm). The application form for 2023 will be available here from 17 August.
