About

The Jenny Walton Masters Awards were established in Jenny’s memory by her family in 2020. The aim of the awards is to enable international students from non-G20 countries (or the five G20 countries with the lowest GDP per capita, namely Mexico, Brazil, South Africa, Indonesia and India) to focus upon their studies and embrace the wider creative opportunities available to them as Central Saint Martin’s students.

The Awards of £12,500 each are available to two international students ordinarily resident in a non-G20 country or the five G20 countries outlined above and entering the second year of either the BA Ceramic Design or BA Fine Art course at Central Saint Martins, in 24/25.

The Awards will be assessed on the basis of firstly applicants ordinarily resident in a non-G20 country (or one of the five eligible G20 countries Mexico, Brazil, South Africa, Indonesia or India), secondly financial need, and thirdly the applicant’s potential as a leader in their field.

For clarity: G20 countries are one of the following: Argentina, Australia, Brazil, Canada, China, France, Germany, India, Indonesia, Italy, Japan, Mexico, Russia, Saudi Arabia, South Africa, South Korea, Turkey, the United Kingdom, the United States and members of the European Union.

The award will be assessed on the basis of financial need, academic merit and the applicant’s potential as a leader in their field.

The award will provide a contribution of £5,000 to the recipient in Year 2 of the course and £7,250   in Year 3 of the course towards living expenses and course costs. There will be no payment in the placement year.

Applications are particularly welcome from students who are in financial hardship and will benefit from undergraduate studies to realise their full potential.
