You may even need to change careers to find employment that works around your caring responsibilities. At the OU, we’re here to help put higher education back within your grasp with our flexible study arrangements.</p><h2>What are the Carers' Scholarships?</h2> <p>The Open University’s Carers' Scholarship is the first of its kind in the UK. We have already provided the equivalent of 130 full Open University scholarships to carers so that they get the chance to study, develop their sense of identity outside of caring and retrain towards seeking new employment. We aim to make a further 10 scholarships available in the 2024/2025 academic year, with three scholarships reserved for applicants aged 25 and under.</p> <p>A scholarship covers OU undergraduate credit-bearing modules and qualifications, paying for the full tuition cost of your qualification, up to 120 credits each seasonal academic year and 360 credits in total.</p> <p>To be eligible, you’ll need to meet all the following criteria:</p> <ul> <li>be starting OU study for the first time in the 2024/2025 academic year</li> <li>be ordinarily resident in the UK and eligible for a UK fee</li> <li>be a carer who cares for an average of 15 hours a week, <strong>or</strong><br /> have been a carer in the last two years, who cared for an average of 15 hours a week, but, due to bereavement, are no longer a carer</li> <li>be able to provide proof of your current or recently ended caring responsibilities</li> <li>have a gross household income of no more than £25,000 a year or receive a qualifying benefit</li> <li>study a minimum of 30 credits a year.</li> </ul> <p>Full details of the scheme are available in the <a href="/courses/courses/fees-and-funding/carers-scholarships-fund/carers-sch-tandc-2024-25.aspx" target="_blank">scholarship terms and conditions</a>.</p><h3>What supporting evidence do I need?</h3> <p>You’ll need to provide evidence that you’ve been providing unpaid care to one or more people. This could be a letter from your current GP, social worker or carer support organisation.</p> <p>You’ll also need to provide evidence of your household income or qualifying benefit.</p><h2>How to apply for a Carers' Scholarship</h2> <p><strong>Applications for academic year 2024/25 are now closed</strong>. If you’re successful, we’ll email you by 12 July 2024 to confirm.
