Unlock Your Potential with the Raheem Sterling Foundation Undergraduate Scholarship
The Raheem Sterling Foundation is committed to creating a world where every young individual has the support they need to enhance their life opportunities and career prospects. Through his charitable efforts, Raheem Sterling aims to empower youth from underprivileged backgrounds, helping them to overcome obstacles, find their voice, and achieve their fullest potential.
Offered exclusively at King’s College London, this scholarship provides financial support for three years of undergraduate study, subject to satisfactory academic progress. The scholarship includes full tuition coverage and a generous annual stipend to assist with living expenses. Please note, the scholarship does not cover additional years beyond the initial three, nor does it fund repeat years, study-abroad programs, or placement years, which will need to be self-financed, potentially through Student Finance options.
