We are a University of Sanctuary

Sheffield has been named a ‘University of Sanctuary’ because of its support for displaced people. Alongside our Sanctuary Scholarships, we are also now part of a national network of universities in the UK committed to helping students and scholars fleeing war, persecution and disasters to continue their studies in a safe and stable environment.
