Changing from medicine to nursing?

Im thinking of going into nursing if i end up failing my medicine degree. I wanted to ask how funding will work? I heard that the nhs bursary covers the tuition fees is that true? Will i be eligible even though i i were to have failed my initial degree (medicine)?

Hi there. Nursing is an exception course, so you can be funded for Tuition Fees, Maintenance Loan and supplementary grants (if eligible). We would not take previous study into account. The Learning Support Fund is a separate grant you may be eligible for through the NHS. Thanks, Leah.

Thank you so much! This is going to be my safety net if i fail med.

You're welcome - if you have any further questions feel free to ask.

Thanks, Graeme
