Nursing and Midwifery funding
If you’re considering a degree in nursing or midwifery, there may be additional funding and support available to you. We’ve outlined some of the key sources of funding available, so you can find out what’s on offer.
The NHS Learning Support Fund (LSF) package gives students funding of at least £5,000 a year for maintenance and associated study costs.
Further support is available to those who meet certain eligibility criteria for childcare costs (up to £2000).
Courses covered:
Undergraduate
Postgraduate
Postgraduate nursing courses
Postgraduate pre-registration nursing students are able to access the standard student loans available to undergraduate students. Funding arrangements are in line with undergraduate pre-registration courses, including eligibility for the student maintenance grant detailed above.
Students who have already taken out a student loan are still able to access another loan to study these courses. This is not the standard postgraduate student loan but the same loan as that accessed by undergraduate students to cover tuition fees and support living costs.
