Choral Scholarship

There are four choral scholarships and one organ scholarship. The choral scholarships offer funding for a Soprano, Alto, Tenor and Bass. The stipend is £2,000 for three academic years.

St Mary’s offers a lively academic community and a warm and welcoming environment to pursue both your academic and musical passions. You may be a student who sings in a choir, or with experience leading or assisting with liturgy in your church. As a St Mary’s Choral Scholar or Organ scholar, you will have the opportunity to pursue your love of music alongside your undergraduate studies in an arts or humanities or theological discipline.

In the first instance, students applying to study on the following degree programmes will be eligible for the choral and organ scholarships: 

• BA Acting
• BA Creative Production
• BA Creative and Professional Writing
• BA English Literature
• BA Film Making
• BA Film Studies
• BA History
• BA Liberal Arts
• BA Theology, Religion and Ethics
• BA Theological Studies
• BA Theological Studies with CertHE Philosophy

As a choral scholar you will be part of expanding the musical legacy of St Mary’s, taking part in music for Sunday Mass, Carol services and outreach activities and expanding the experience of spiritual life of St Mary’s students across the University.
