| It's strictly based on academic results. You'll need straight HD/D's on your transcript, the higher the better. IMO participation will give you an edge. Preference is given to third years, but the best second years also have a chance. Last year the school of maths offered 14 scholarships, including 2 second years and a first year. The school of physics also offer similar scholarships, with lower requirements I think (because they have more money, some 30 places available if I remember correctly).
