Here are some more ways that the Bursary Beyond Price has helped recipients…
“This bursary has offered me the opportunity to enhance my favourite part of studying architecture which is modelmaking. I would recommend this bursary as it helps less fortunate students focus on the things they are passionate about...”
“This bursary came at exactly the right time, as it took a huge weight off my shoulders, especially with the rising cost of living. I wasn’t sure how I would balance everything financially. As a result, I feel more confident in my abilities and more motivated to keep pushing myself academically and personally.”
“The bursary removed a significant layer of financial pressure at a point when academic demands are at their highest. The support allowed me to move closer to university that has reduced my commuting time giving me more time for studio work, independent research and rest. It allowed me to set up a functional work space at home. I have been able to work as a teaching assistant for undergraduates, an experience both demanding and deeply formative.”
“The support has been pivotal in developing my architectural education and research. Financial burdens tend to limit imagination, time to learn, think and articulate. I found immense relief in how simple yet personal [the application form] was. A heartfelt thanks to David Price for his kindness, recognising a disparity he experienced himself, one not often addressed or pursued in the field yet carried forward in his legacy via a determined bursary panel.”
“I am from a low income family, and I am the first in my family to attend university. Without this bursary, I would have no financial support...[with the bursary] I was able to attend the field trip abroad,materials,transport to site visits...the opportunity to focus on my studies. I am dyslexic and I appreciated that the [application] forms were so clear and easy to complete.”
“The Bursary Beyond Price has played a key role in allowing me to start my architectural education on the right foot. The bursary not only allowed me to purchase a high-quality laptop that will last for the whole duration of the course... but also meant that I was easily able to go on trips around London with the cohort... I would recommend anyone who is eligible to apply!”
“The bursary has opened a window for inspiring educational travel opportunities that have helped me on my design journey, such as a trip to Venice during November reading week as well as a trip to Paris.”
“The bursary has been instrumental in enabling me to get the most out of my first term and will continue to play a big role in the coming months. It has helped fund a research trip to study in Albania and an upcoming mandatory site visit to Switzerland for further research - both now affordable.”
“...The correspondence was clear, easy to communicate and to reach...the application process was straightforward. The help provided encouraged me to continue my studies.”
“My first priority was to buy a laptop that could meet my ever-increasing needs and facilitate the realisation of big dreams and even greater drawings... As a student not relying on overworking, I have been able to act as a student rep on each of my modules and a peer-assisted learner for the first-year bachelor students; I hope to guide and serve others on this journey.”
“My heartfelt thanks goes to David Price, and the administrators of the award. It is heartening to know that he received this kind of support, and then chose to pass it on to others through this scheme... The application process was brilliant. Couldn’t be simpler.”
