From 1 August 2019, the only students who can apply for NHS Bursary funding are those on medical or dental courses entering the NHS Funded years of their course.

Continuing healthcare students on non-medical or dental courses that started before 1 August 2019 who are already in receipt of an NHS Bursary will continue to be eligible to apply for funding for the duration of their course if they have no interruption to their study and reapply for subsequent years within the published timescales.

If you have any change to your study pattern such as transferring to a different university or course, withdrawing from your course and resuming, or changing from full-time to part-time, you may still be eligible for NHS Bursary funding subject to authorisation from Health Education England (HEE).

You must speak to your university who'll liaise with the appropriate HEE regional office. They'll make the final decision about your continuation of NHS Bursary and tuition fee funding on a case by case basis.

You must not assume NHS Bursary funding will automatically continue.

If NHS Bursary funding is no longer available to you, apply to Student Finance England or the equivalent UK body for mainstream student loan support instead.
