Application requirement details: contact the university

Study level you are applying for: Postgraduate

Overview

MSc Physician Associate Studies students can access financial support in the form of a bursary and, in certain circumstances, a hardship fund.

Bursary

A bursary is available to all eligible students and is paid in regular instalments throughout both years of the course. It is intended to alleviate the financial pressures of completing this course and the associated placements.

Hardship

Additional financial support is available from a hardship fund. All applications are assessed on an individual basis, and payments are not guaranteed. It is intended to support students who find themselves with additional financial pressures, over and above the expected norms.

You should ensure that you have accessed all other suitable sources of funding before applying to the hardship fund.

The bursary and hardship fund can be awarded in addition to a Master's Loan from Student Finance England if you are eligible for one.

What you could receive

Bursary

Eligible students will receive £5,100 divided across both years of study (£2,550 per year). It is normally paid over ten equal monthly instalments from March to December.

Hardship

Hardship applications will be assessed individually and award amounts will vary depending on your circumstances and the evidence provided.

Who can apply

You will receive the bursary and you can apply for the hardship fund if you are fully enrolled on the MSc Physician Associate Studies course.
