As a means to financially support several top-performing students each year, The Slade School of Fine Art offers a small number of Sessional Prizes, including The Steer Medal and Prize, to Slade Scholarships and Prizes Committee-chosen students. The Steer Medal and Prize is awarded based on recommendations from various Slade professors.
At this time, no application is necessary to be considered for the prize at this time – all students who have confirmed their place become automatic candidates. Students should be aware that all nominations are made based entirely on the students' high entrance-examination performance and exemplary academic achievement.
