John Crook Scholarships
For many people, going to university is about more than getting a degree; it inspires them to pursue new avenues of intellectual enquiry and ignites a passion for subjects which they had never thought about studying before. The John Crook Scholarship offers students the opportunity to take this further by studying for a second, two-year degree at St John's College, Cambridge.

Candidates need to be:
- the first generation in their family to go to university
- a current student, or recent graduate, with an exceptional academic record, from one of the universities on the eligible list
- a British citizen
