Bursaries on grad entry

Hi,

Just a quicky, if your on a graduate entry course, you don't apply for dept of health burseries in the first year do you?, I know we don't get any funding or help with the tution fee in the 1st year but are there any compusary forms or anything to fill in to??, also need to be sure just to answer the question of the loan form regarding applying for other financal help even if you are not eligable for any money. Have'nt heard any thing from the uni about it yet...

No, you have nothing to do for the first year for the DoH bursary.
I think you do need to have applied for student support (and been rejected) to be eligible for it though, or so I vaguely recall hearing somewhere.

Unauthoritatively,

The uni won't usually send you loan forms and information. It's worth filling out these forms even if you don't want a student loan because you can then take the loan out later if you change your mind. You can get them from your Local Education Authority.
