i'm getting the full £1000 quid :biggrin:

you get 300 quid in october and 700 in like feb i think.

how muh grant are you getting from the government? if you're getting the full amount then you'll get 1,000 from lancater. if your getting a partial grant and your parental income is under 25k then you'll get 500.

you automatically get it, it just depends on your household income.

if household income is below 17k then you get the full government grant and lancaster grant.

I was told that I would get my £1000 bursary thingy in feb. However, mine wasn't the income assessed one, it was the one for putting them as your first choice and getting better grades. hooray (turns out, 1 mark in physics, was worth 1000 quid!)

They are 2 different things. The bursary is the money paid in 2 installments to students from low income families. The one off £1000 payment for higher grades is the scholarship. The scholarship can carry on into years 2 and 3 if you get high enough marks in your uni exams.
There is nothing to stop you getting both. (I do - whoop - free money!)

no as far as i know, i read on the webiste you cannot get the scholarship if your subject carries a bursary already. unlucky. although, i dont really think that that is fair, since you still met requirements on both aspects.
