This is a "widening participation" programme aimed at helping to level the playing field for those who might not have the same support, guidance and encouragement to go to university as others. It continues to offer you support, work and networking opportunities right through university. This is an fantastic programme!
How they describe the programme themselves:
"There have never been more young people applying to university and graduate jobs are extremely competitive. The APP is designed to support hard working students who might not have family members with the relevant educational or career experience to guide them. If you’re bright and determined, but not sure how to get to where you want in terms of university and jobs, we can help. We want to give you the opportunities to show your potential no matter what your background is. At the SMF we are proud that the majority of our students go on to the top universities in the UK and undertake experiences and opportunities with us that help them gain employment in prestigious organisations"
