We are proud to celebrate and support students such as Brian – the talent of tomorrow. We congratulate him on his exceptional academic performance, particularly in the context of a very challenging college year with remote learning and wish him every success in his future.”

Deirdre O’Connor from UL’s Access Office commended Brian for his academic achievement saying, “The value of bursaries such as the Holmes O’Malley Sexton Endowed Scholarship is not just in the financial value but also that it demonstrates belief in the students’ abilities and potential.”
