Applications are invited for the two one-year scholarships offered jointly by a Trust set up by the Lockerbie Disaster Trust Fund and Syracuse University.

 

Each scholarship will be offered for the academic session 2022/2023 and will be open to the following categories of students who are resident in, or have substantial connection with the community of Lockerbie:-

 

1.            Sixth-year secondary pupils who are eligible to attend Syracuse University as first year undergraduates.

 

2.            Undergraduate or postgraduate students attending Universities or Colleges.

 

These scholarships have been set up to strengthen the bond between the Community of Lockerbie and Syracuse University, 35 of whose students died in the air disaster on 21 December 1988.   Candidates should therefore be both of the requisite academic ability and be suitable ambassadors to further the links and friendship between the Scottish and American communities.

 

Further details and forms of application are available to download and complete on the school website http://www.lockerbieacademy.dumgal.sch.uk/

 

 Closing date for applications:

Thursday 9 December 2021 at 5pm and should be emailed to:
