SCHOLARSHIPS

ACADEMI HYWEL TEIFI AWARD The Academi Hywel Teifi Award has been created to reward students who contribute to the Welsh-medium cultural and academic life and activities of Swansea University. The award recognises the role, contribution and achievements of supporting, promoting and ensuring a greater status for the Welsh language in all aspects of university life. For more information, visit:  swansea.ac.uk/academi-hywel-teifi/learn/employability- entrepreneurship/aht-award/ LIVE WITH OTHER WELSH SPEAKERS IN HALLS You have the option to live with other Welsh speakers in designated halls of residence on Singleton and Bay Campus. It is well worth you taking this opportunity in your first year as it will assist you in making new friends quickly and settling into university life. Make sure to note your preference on the application form. THE WELSH SOCIETY (GYMGYM) Whether you’re a fluent Welsh speaker or just looking to practice your Welsh, the GymGym will give you a range of opportunities to socialise with other Welsh speakers in an informal environment. The GymGym hosts regular events including quiz nights, volunteering opportunities and socials. However, the most memorable events include their annual international rugby trip (in recent years to Dublin or Edinburgh), the inter-college dance and the inter-college Eisteddfod. The GymGym also supports the University’s Welsh-language rugby club, Rygbi Tawe.
