On the postgraduate bursary application form we ask you to estimate your unearned income for the forthcoming academic year.

As you'll be applying before this period has ended, we may ask for further evidence later in the year.

You must upload any requested evidence to your MyFunding account.

When you apply, you must declare any unearned income. You only need to upload evidence if it's more than £1,000.

The bursary application form details what evidence we can accept.

Income from property, lettings or rent

  • accountant's letter
