Dear Sir/Madam,

Re: Application for Trust or Charity

Personal information

Begin with your name and the fund that you are applying for. Then give additional

details such as your age, nationality, marital status, dependants, course of study and

duration of the course.

Explain why you are applying

Detail the reasons why you are applying and the factors that have led to your shortfall in

funding. Give a clear explanation of your financial circumstances.

Explain how you meet the criteria of the charity/trust (if applicable)

Some charities may only finance people from a particular part of the country, others may

assist students on certain courses and some charities may specifically fund international

students. You must therefore examine the criteria and clearly explain how you satisfy it.

How you are dealing with your situation

Explain what actions you have taken to deal with your financial shortfall, such as taking

up employment, careful budgeting, consultation with a financial advisor (e.g at the ARC

or your bank).

It is important that you show that you have tried to resolve the problem before

applying for additional support.

Explain how the fund will help you

Explain how you will use the funding to enable you to complete your degree. Clarify the

long-term benefits that it will have for you and finish by pointing out that you will be

grateful for any assistance that the organisation can provide.

Yours sincerely,

(Signature)

Any Student
