General funding arrangements NHS Student bursaries is responsible for administering the NHS Bursary Scheme to eligible pre-registration health professional students on courses designated for NHS funding.

3 The Department of Health and the Department for Business Innovation and Skills share responsibility for the financial support of medical and dental students that are ordinarily resident in England. Currently, NHS bursaries are administered to eligible students under two different NHS Bursary Scheme rules. Both Schemes cover the academic year 1 September 2016 to 31 August 2017. For medical and dental courses commencing before 1 September 2012 students will be awarded a Bursary under the regulations of the NHS Bursary Scheme Old Rules 16th Edition. For medical and dental courses which commenced on or after 1 September 2012, students are awarded a Bursary under the regulations of the NHS Bursary Scheme New Rules 5th Edition. Important information regarding 2017/18 From 1 August 2017, new nursing, midwifery and allied health students will no longer receive NHS bursaries . Instead, they will have access to the same student loans system as other students.

4 It is not currently anticipated that existing medical and dental students will be affected and NHS Bursary support will remain available as before. Any additional information will be made available when our literature is updated for 2017/18. Online Bursary information for students General information on the financial support available to means tested NHS funded students is given in the Financial help for healthcare students booklet and students can obtain additional individualised information by using our Bursary Calculators which provide information on personal eligibility, student status and also provide award estimates.

Residency and immigration status Each UK country is responsible for the funding of its own medical and dental students, wherever they study within the UK. Therefore, UK students studying outside the UK are not eligible to receive an NHS Bursary . Because of this, and in addition to the general immigration and residence requirements set out below, the NHS Bursary Scheme will only provide bursaries for medical and dental students who: Are ordinarily resident in England on the first day of the first academic year of their course Are not ordinarily resident in the UK or Islands but qualify for an NHS Bursary under the provisions highlighted in any of the relevant categories on pages 5 to 12 of this guide. Students who were not ordinarily resident in England on the first day of their course medical and dental students who were ordinarily resident in Scotland, Wales or Northern Ireland before the beginning of their medicine or dentistry degree course should apply to their own national funding authority for support.

7 Funding from these bodies would be in accordance with their respective eligibility criteria. Contact details are provided near the end of this guide. A student who is ordinarily resident in England, Wales, Scotland, Northern Ireland or the Islands as a result of having moved from another of those areas for the purpose of undertaking their current course (or a previous course, which disregarding any intervening vacation the student undertook immediately before undertaking the current course) will be considered as being ordinarily resident in the place from which they moved. For example, a student was ordinarily resident in Scotland, but moved to England to undertake a foundation level science degree for a year. They were funded by the Student Awards Agency for Scotland for that course. The student remained in England for the following summer vacation period and then began their undergraduate Medicine course at another English university in the Autumn.

8 They would be regarded as being ordinarily resident in Scotland for NHS Bursary purposes, regardless of whether their normal national funding body offered any further financial support for a second degree or not. EU students EU students who do not qualify for a full Bursary because they have not been ordinarily resident in the UK are still entitled to have their tuition fee contribution met by a UK funding authority, provided that they have been ordinarily resident in the EEA for at least three years prior to the start of their course. NHS Bursary and tuition fee payments for medical and dental students 2016-17 (V1) 07/2016 7 In general, EU students studying at universities in England should apply to NHS Student bursaries . EU students studying at a university in Scotland, Wales or Northern Ireland should apply to the national authority for the country in which they are studying. To be eligible for payment of tuition fees and the maintenance grant, all medical and dental Bursary applicants have to at least demonstrate ordinary residence in England on the first day of the first academic year in which their course began.

9 Various other eligibility criteria apply. These are shown in more detail in Section below. The EU referendum result and NHS Bursary eligibility in 2016/17 The UK remains a full member of the EU and all the rights and obligations of EU membership remain in force. EU students who are eligible under current rules to receive NHS bursaries from the NHS Business Services Authority (NHSBSA) remain eligible for courses they are currently enrolled on or about to start in the 2016/17 academic year. Information on the eligibility criteria, including residency rules, is available on the or NHSBSA websites. NHS Bursary Scheme eligibility categories Students will be eligible to apply for a full Bursary if they meet the relevant requirements in the categories outlined below, except for Category 6 where students who meet the requirements are only entitled to a tuition fees only Bursary .

10 (UK nationals who have always lived in the UK may also qualify under this entry) (i) Ordinarily resident in England on the first day of the first academic year of the course; AND ii) Ordinarily resident in the UK and Islands throughout the three years before the first day of the first academic year of the course. If the student s residence in the UK and Islands during any part of this period was wholly or mainly for the purpose of receiving full time education, they will not be eligible unless they or their family were temporarily employed abroad. 1(b) Students who are settled in the UK by virtue of having acquired the right to permanent residence i) Ordinarily resident in England on the first day of the first academic year of the course; AND ii) Ordinarily resident in the UK and Islands throughout the three years before the first day of the first academic year of the course.
