About the Programme

Realising Opportunities (RO) is a unique collaboration of leading, research intensive universities, working together to promote fair access and social mobility of students from groups under represented in higher education. The RO Programme provides able students with skills and information to help them not only make informed decisions about their future and to raise their aspirations to progress to a leading research intensive university, but to support their current work in school/college.

For more information about Realising Opportunities, please access any of these links below.

(Please note: Student programmes for Cohort 16, may contain new information and will be shared as soon as possible.)
