What it covers

Who can apply

In order to be eligible to apply for a grant, you must be:

• Over the age of 24 on 1 October of the proposed year of study;
• Either accepted on, or applying for, a place on a degree course in medicine, dentistry or veterinary studies taken as a second degree, or accepted on, or applying for, a full- or part-time place on a master's or doctoral degree programme in any discipline, at a UK university;
• Already resident in the UK at the time of application, and resident in the UK during the course of study;
• Be facing demonstrable financial need in the academic year for which funding is applied (details about how this is calculated are in the application pack). 

NB: if you are a postgraduate student, or applying for a place on a postgraduate degree course, you must hold a first or 2:1 degree from a UK institution (or its equivalent from a non-UK institution) or hold a master's degree from a UK institution, or its overseas equivalent.

If your first or subsequent degree was awarded by a university outside the UK, and you have not previously been awarded a grant from our Trust, then you MUST obtain and submit with your application a letter from the UK University at which you plan to study in 2021/22. This letter should confirm that the University considers your overseas degree to be equivalent to a UK First Class or Upper-Second Class degree with honours, or a master’s or doctoral degree. Applications which come without this letter will be rejected without further discussion. (If you have previously been awarded a grant from our Trust, you do not need to submit the letter from the UK University.) 

We do accept applications from final year BA/BSc students, but the awarding of any grant is contingent upon the outcome of their first degree.

Applicable courses

Further information

Awards are competitive and made on the basis of academic merit and financial need.  All grants are awarded for a full year of academic study and for one year only.  Applicants for full time postgraduate degree courses may be supported for up to a maximum of four years, but new applications must be submitted each year. Part-time postgraduate courses can be funded for a maximum of seven years, but new applications have to be submitted each year. (Please note that from 2022 onwards, these maximum periods will revert to three years for full-timers and six years for part-timers)

Grants are normally from £500 to £1,300 in value. They are intended to cover the shortfall incurred by educational and subsistence expenses upon payment of tuition fees. Before award money can be released, applicants must confirm that their financial situation has not improved significantly and that they still have a financial shortfall.
