2019 Oxford University Vice-Chancellor’s Social Impact Awards for Oxford University students
Deadline: May 5, 2019.
The Vice-Chancellor’s Social Impact Awards celebrate Oxford University students who have made a difference in our local or global community – nominate yourself or someone else for an Award today!
The Vice-Chancellor’s Social Impact Awards are presented every year to Oxford University students who show exceptional achievement and commitment to positive social change. They are a great opportunity to be recognised for the hard work you put into making a difference – or to celebrate someone else you know’s incredible impact.
ELIGIBILITY
1. Awards are given only to individual students currently matriculated at the University of Oxford, of any year or course.
2. They are looking for any students who have demonstrated leadership, commitment, passion and proven social impact.
3. There is no specification about where the student’s project(s) is(are) and when it(they) took place, however the panel often prefers to see evidence of recent Oxford or UK impact. Previous Awardees have been recognised for volunteering in the local community, raising funds for charity, campaigning, launching social enterprises and carrying out research on social and environmental issues.
