GRANTHAM MAINTENANCE GRANTS FOR NEEDY STUDENTS
Applications Should Be Sent In Before February 28
A limited number of Grantham Maintenance Grants for the second-half
of the 1972-73 academic year, to be awarded by the Grantham Scholarships
Fund Committee are now available to students.
Applications are invited from those pursuing courses in secondary
schools, the technical college or technical institute, the Baptist College
and the two Universities.
The overriding criterion for awards of the grants will be
financial needs.
They are intended for those who did not initially qualify for
either a Grantham Scholarship or a Grantham Bursary because they were
financially less needy, but who now require cash assistance due to an
adverse change in the financial circumstances of their family.
Intending applicants should note that these awards will normally
not be made to a student holding a scholarship or receiving any form of
financial assistance other than interest-free loan or the remission of fees.
Students who have applied for Grantham Scholarships/Bursaries
need not re-apply.
Application forms will be obtainable from the Secretariat for
Home Affairs on the ninth floor of International Building, No 141 Des Voeux
Road Central, Hong Kong from January 29, 1973.
