Tennant Fund and Studentship: Notice

Statutes and Ordinances, 2005, pp. 700 and 864

The Managers of the Tennant Fund give notice that applications for the Tennant Studentship and for grants from the Tennant Fund must be submitted through the candidate's Tutor to the Registrary so as to reach him not later than 1 June 2006.

The Tennant Studentship for advanced study or research in Norway is open to members of the University who at the date of election have passed some final examination for the degree of Bachelor of Arts, provided that at the same date not more than twenty-four terms have elapsed since the end of their first term of residence. The Studentship is tenable for one year; but a Student may be re-elected if otherwise qualified.

Applications for the Studentship should be accompanied by a statement of the course of advanced study or research, which the candidate proposes to undertake. The course proposed must involve residence in Norway for not less than eight months.

The Student will receive a stipend of £50, which will be paid not later than the thirtieth day following the election, and such additional stipend as may be determined by the Managers after taking account of any other financial resources that may be available to the Student.

It is open to any member of the University to apply for grants from the Tennant Fund for the furtherance of studies in Norway. Applications for the Studentship or for a grant should be made on special forms, copies of which are available from the Secretary, Department of Anglo-Saxon, Norse, and Celtic, 9 West Road, Cambridge, CB3 9DP or may be downloaded from the Department website: www.asnc.cam.ac.uk/current/grants.htm. N.B. Applications for grants to support joint projects should be made by the senior member supervising the project on behalf of the individuals taking part.
