Re: 2012 Medics Will Never Pay Off Their Student Loan - Am I Right? Warning containsI think you have to pay the first £3375 (or so) yourself, and then you get a tuition fee loan from the SLC for the remaining £5625.(Original post by Funky_Climber)
Any information for Graduates doing the 4 year course from 2012?
Not sure about the Maintenance Loan / Grant situation

Re: 2012 Medics Will Never Pay Off Their Student Loan - Am I Right? Warning containsIf you are starting your course in the academic year 2012/13, you will have to self fund the first £3,375 of your tuition fees in the first year. In later years, the NHS Bursary scheme will pay £3,375 towards your tuition. Throughout the course, a Student Loan Company loan will be available to cover the difference between £3,375 and the tuition charges of their universities, to a maximum charge of £9,000.(Original post by Funky_Climber)

Re: 2012 Medics Will Never Pay Off Their Student Loan - Am I Right? Warning containsHey could I ask if you know when students apply for the NHS bursary?(Original post by monotreme)
No, I didn't include £9000 tuition for the final year - I allowed for the NHS bursary, I presume they still only pay tuition for the final year if you studied for 6 years?
Thanks -
Re: 2012 Medics Will Never Pay Off Their Student Loan - Am I Right? Warning containsOn another page it said that NHS payed your fees years 5+6 fully regardless. The bursary is then available on top of that.(Original post by thegodofgod)

Edit: "In addition to the bursary support, DH also funds their tuition costs from the fifth year."
