Win £1,000 with the return of the Santander Brighter Futures Grants Programme

The University’s long-term partner Santander is offering ten grants worth £1,000 to support you during your studies.

We are committed to empowering all students to achieve their goals and we know that key to this is ensuring you can focus on what truly matters – your studies. 

The Brighter Futures Grants are designed to help lift some of the financial pressures that you might come across as a student. 

In collaboration with Santander, we are giving away £1,000 to 10 Westminster students. The funds can be spent on rent, bills, study resources or anything else that will help create an environment where you can focus. 

All students are eligible to enter, including undergraduates, postgraduates, part-time and full-time students. You also don’t need to bank with Santander to get involved. 

How to apply

  • Register for the Santander Open Academy, a free online learning platform (if you haven’t already)
  • Click the verification link in your confirmation email
  • Log in and choose ‘Get Started’ to complete your entry into the Brighter Futures Grants programme. From the menu, you then need to select the relevant University name.

Apply by Thursday 27 November to get the chance to enhance your academic life with a Brighter Futures Grants.
