Hi Austin,
There are a number of bursaries and scholarships available for people going to university. Whether you are eligible or not depends on a lot of different factors. The best thing to do is contact your local Army Careers Centre where they can take your details and best advise you. This is not something that this platform is suitable for.
As a bonus, there are University Officer Training Corps located at various universities throughout the UK. There is a Wales UOTC that has parade nights in Swansea. This will allow you to get a taste of what life is like in the army and, as a bonus, you will get paid if you go away with them. It's certainly something to look at!
