Millennium Scholars
Bank of Ireland Millennium Scholars Trust
The Bank of Ireland Millennium Scholars Trust was established in 2000 to mark the new Millennium. It is the largest single millennium initiative from either State or private sources. Bank of Ireland allocated €12.5 million to the Trust.
To date, the Trust has supported a total of 575 students in furthering their education at third-level. Millennium Scholars come from diverse backgrounds, some entering college directly from secondary school, mature students returning to education later in life and young artists challenged to meet the cost of developing their talents at home and abroad.
The Trust awards scholarships to people with talent and ability who, because of economic circumstances or other barriers such as disability, are prevented from reaching their full educational potential. The Trust is now in its tenth and final year of awarding scholarships. No further new applications will be accepted as the 2009 closing dates are now past.
The Trust is administered by National College of Ireland (NCI), on behalf of Bank of Ireland.
