How to apply

Please complete the application form (.docx) and submit it to the Schools Membership Plus Team via smplus@essex.ac.uk.

  • Even distribution of awards across SMP partners proportionate to size of institution
  • Personal statement
  • If needed, strength of reference from named contact within the application form.

Successful students will be contacted via email by the end of September 2023.
