The tuition fee award is not subject to an income assessment.
If you're studying on a course other than medicine or dentistry and you are still supported by the NHS Bursary rather than mainstream student loans, your tuition fees are a matter for Health Education England. The NHS Business Services Authority (NHSBSA) has no involvement with fee payments for non-medical or dental students.
If you are deemed eligible and studying an NHS funded year of a Medical or Dental course, it will depend on the type of course you are studying as to how much we will contribute.
We would pay up to £9,250 for pre-registration (undergraduate) courses lasting 5 or more years, including any integral foundation or intercalating years at bachelor or masters degree level. We'll pay up to £3,715, or £3,925 in Northern Ireland for shortened or accelerated pre-registration (graduate-entry) courses.
If you're in your final year and your attendance is 15 weeks or less, we'll pay fees up to £4,625.
We'll pay up to £4,625 for any eligible academic year of an international course where the periods of study at the UK university are no more than 10 full time weeks or 30 part time weeks, excluding holidays.
Where a university has chosen to charge a higher tuition fee contribution than those shown above, you'll be expected to meet any balance in excess of this amount yourself.
