You do not need to repay a Ογ½ΆΦ±²₯ bursary. It is paid in the first year of your course only.
Additional financial support
Depending on your circumstances, you could be eligible to receive further bursaries and financial support from the Ογ½ΆΦ±²₯ in subsequent years of study.
Student Support Fund
If you are in hardship you can apply for additional help from the Student Support Fund in every year of your course.
Who is eligible
To be eligible to apply for this bursary you must:
- be a student on an undergraduate or PGCE course
- be normally resident in an EU country other than the UK and have been assessed as eligible to receive a tuition fee loan from Student Finance England
- have a household income up to and including the equivalent of £25,000 a year.
Your eligibility for the bursary may be affected if you already have a degree or other higher education qualification, or if you are studying for another qualification at the same or a lower level.
Your eligibility for this bursary will be re-assessed each academic year.
Exceptions
Nursing, midwifery and allied health professions (AHP) courses have different tuition fee and funding arrangements. Students on these courses do not qualify for the Ογ½ΆΦ±²₯ bursary.
Some social work students are eligible to receive NHS bursaries in years 2 and 3 of their courses. Social work students who receive these bursaries are not eligible for the Ογ½ΆΦ±²₯ bursary either. Please note the closing date for 2014 entry students has now passed.

- Apply for your student funding as soon as possible.
- Once your tuition fee loan has been agreed and you have been notified, please contact Student Finance England EU Team to request a bursary application form.
We will email you in the autumn to confirm whether you will receive this bursary for the academic year.
