Financial Support
JACT Durham Bursaries
It’s our mission to make Classics and Classics education open and accessible to all, regardless of age or educational background. Everyone who wants to study the Classical World, including its languages, should have this opportunity. Thanks to our generous donors, the JACT Durham Greek & Latin Summer School is delighted to be able to offer limited financial support in the form of bursaries to those students who would otherwise be unable to attend the course.
For 2027, we are pleased to continue offering two bursary options for students who require financial assistance. The bursaries are intended solely to contribute towards the course fees and cannot cover other expenses (e.g. travel costs). A ‘Financial Hardship’ bursary is intended specifically for students who, due to financial circumstances, are not able to afford the full cost of the course. An ‘Access to Classics’ bursary is for those students who have little to no access to Classics and Classics education in their school or college and would also need support with the course fees.
Please note, you can only apply to one of the bursary funds.
If you are at school, college, or university, we would also recommend that you speak to them first about your plans to attend the Summer School, as oftentimes they also have funds available to support students attending summer programmes.
To apply for a JACT Durham Greek & Latin Summer School bursary to help towards the course fees you must first register on the course by clicking the ‘Apply Now’ button.
Once you’ve registered on the course, please complete the bursary form in full, clearly indicating whether you are applying for a ‘Financial Hardship’ or an ‘Access to Classics’ bursary. The outcome of your bursary application will be communicated in May 2027 when the JACT Durham Greek & Latin Summer School Leadership Team have convened and reviewed all bursary applications. Please be aware that the amounts we can offer will depend entirely on demand and the funds we receive from our generous donors.
When applying for a bursary, we kindly ask that you please only apply for the minimum amount that you need to be able to attend the course. By doing this, you’re helping us to offer as many bursaries as possible to those who need them.
Please also read the 'Bursary Terms & Conditions 2027' before applying.
All questions relating to bursaries should be sent to the Course Director on - tony.durham.lgss@gmail.com
