What is the NHS Bursary?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

NHS Bursaries provide those that are studying for a health-related course, either as an undergraduate or postgraduate, financial support throughout their education. From day-to-day expenses to rent and bills, financial support reduces the stresses of future healthcare professionals, allowing them to focus on their studies. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

NHS bursaries can differ depending on where you live, your course of choice, your household income, and whether you have had prior funding. Therefore, it is always worth researching what financial support is available via the <\/a>NHS Student Bursaries website<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

NHS Bursary Eligibility <\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In order to receive the NHS Bursary, you must have been accepted for a place on a full or part-time NHS-funded course after August 1, 2018, which will lead to you becoming a doctor or dentist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can apply for an NHS bursary from your 5th year on a 5-6 year course<\/em>, or from your 2nd year on a 4-year accelerated course<\/em>. Please note that NHS bursaries take into account where you live, your course, your household income, and whether you have had prior funding. Therefore, it is worth reaching out and speaking to enquire about your eligibility. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

How to Apply?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In order to apply for an NHS bursary, you will need to register for an NHS Bursary account before you begin the application process. Then, once you have registered, you can log into your account and begin the application process.
