Bursaries for UK / Home undergraduate students

At 91¶¶Òõ we provide a range of bursaries which are carefully targeted at students who most need financial help.

You may be eligible for a bursary or grant from the NHS if you are studying social work or nursing or health courses.

Remember: you do not have to pay back university bursaries. You can use the funds  to help you cover the cost of tuition, books, university accommodation, travel, study aids, childcare and more.

Your eligibility for these bursaries will be re-assessed each academic year.

Email any enquiries to bursaries@brighton.ac.uk.
