Asked Questions
What
are the Real World Awards?
Now in its eighth year,
the Real World Awards celebrate the
achievements
of students who have shown energy, attitude and commitment to
extra-curricular,
work or community based activities.
Real World is looking for
students who have gone
that extra mile and made the most of their time at university. This
year, in
collaboration with Enterprise Rent-A-Car and the Anjool Malde Memorial
Fund, we’ve taken the Awards one
step
further and are offering not only a cash prize of up to £6,000 but also
the
chance for five students to gain a coveted summer internship at
Enterprise Rent-A-Car..
There are two categories this
year: Enterprising
Graduate of the Year and Student Personality of the Year. Any student
can apply and we want you to tell us
what
you’ve done at university that demonstrates your
potential.
This can include work experience, participation in clubs, organisations
or
sport, community activities and classroom projects.
What
do I win?
For
Enterprising Student of the Year, the prize is five
remunerated summer internships
awarded between January and June 2010.
Prize money of up to £5,000 will
also be
awarded in September 2010.
The internships will last
between eight and twelve
weeks and will take place during summer 2010, at any of Enterprise’s
340 plus
locations around the UK.
It is possible to win both a
summer internship and a
cash prize. You will also be part of a feature in a forthcoming edition
of Real
World Magazine, and national and regional media coverage.
For Student Personality of the
Year, the prize is £2,000.
