The Excellence Scholarships, which range in value from £3,000 to £4,000, were presented to the students by the University’s Pro Vice-Chancellor Professor Oliver Turnbull.

The students to benefit from the 2014 Excellence Scholarship awards are:

  • Linguistics student Robert Reddington
  • Music student
  • School of Welsh students Elinor Mair Pritchard and Sioned Rowlands
  • Electronic Engineering student
  • Chemistry student
  • Law student Miriam Hughes

  • Psychology student Mirain Llwyd Roberts
  • Sports Science student

Former Ysgol Friars, Bangor, pupil Daisy Hung achieved A* Chemistry, A* Mathematics, A* Further Mathematics and an A in Physics at A level. She is now studying Electronic Engineering at Bangor.

Daisy said, “I have received £4,000 and this will help me tremendously in my studies as I plan to go abroad for a year of International Experience in my third year.

 â€Àá²Ô receiving this scholarship, I feel my efforts have been recognized and it gives me motivation to continue endeavouring to achieve my goals. “

Excellence Scholarship winnersExcellence Scholarship winnersEnvironmental Sciences student Alex Moir from Bishop Auckland in Co Durham gained three As and an A* for his Extended Project at A Level.

Describing how it feels to be given an award he said, “I am extremely grateful to the University for the scholarship; it feels great to have such a big financial reward for my hard work at A Level. 

This is the icing on the cake for me as everything else about my experience at Bangor is great too!â€

Jerome Becks from Kettering is a first year Music student. He achieved D*, D*, D* in his BTEC Extended Diploma in Music at Tresham College.

He remarked, “I receive £3000 from the Scholarship Award, something will help me massively with my studies. I’ll be able to ensure I have equipment and software needed for modules like Composition or Music Technology.  It will also mean I have the opportunity to invest in instrument lessons.

“I was honestly surprised when I found out that I had won Scholarship. It is a huge boost in confidence and a reminder that working hard makes everything worthwhile! I’m ecstatic.“
