do I need to apply even though my course is funded by a NHS Bursary?

I suggest getting it done ASAP. You may have to send in some evidence, although if you have a UK passport then you prob won't have to. On that note make sure you have your passport handy so you can type in your details. If you don't have a passport it lists some other options for evidence.

If my course is funded by a NHS Bursary do I need to apply for student finance?

I have no idea, sorry. If no one can answer I suggest giving Student Finance a ring tomorrow. I'm pretty sure you can apply for student finance as I think there was a question asking if you get an NHS bursary. I have no idea what it entitles but do you need to apply for maintenance, tuition fee or disability allowance? Or is everything covered by the bursary?

I haven't done mine either

Wasn't April the deadline for being able to receive income-assessed financial help? I distinctly remember an email about that

It was badly worded, that's if it's your second/ third/ etc year of getting student finance for new applicants the deadline is May 31st

"If you get an income-assessed NHS bursary you may still get help through the standard student finance package, you will need to apply for this separately."

I assume you are going to study nursing or something along that line? But yeah, you do still have to apply!

its driving me up the bloody wall...im trying to put my parents info in but its asking for the most obscure things and i have spent hours crawling through our filing cabinets and we don't seem to have the documents with the info in what the hell do i do?! is there anyway of cancelling the income assessment?? losing the will to live

[Tzarchasm]

My application was completely cancelled and now I'll have to go through everything again tomorrow.

[Salmaa!]

will you still get the money through for the start of the academic year if you're one day off the deadline?

[barneybewick]

i've been getting mine done today! thinking about it now it seems so silly of me to leave it this late but i guess revision has been my priority for the last few weeks... and before then i thought i still had ages to get it done! just need to fill in my parents details, but not applying for anything that is income dependant so will hopefully get it done tonight. good luck to my all my fellow unorganised people out there!

When's the deadline? If it hasn't passed yet, don't worry; I sent mine off last year waaayyyy past the deadline and I still got my money in the first week. If you send it off after the deadline, I doubt there'll be much of a problem at all, and this year there are far less applications, too.

Wait, what? I didn't get an e-mail about this. I only completed mine yesterday...

NHS guys can still get the student loan to pay towards living costs. I thought the NHS bursary only covers tuition cost.
