Are there any grants for Sport Therapy undergraduate degree

Hi,

I’ve just been accepted onto a Sport Rehabilitation undergraduate degree and am wondering if there are any grants available? This is my second undergraduate degree so I don’t think I can apply for another student loan. I saw that there is an NHS Learning Support Fund, however I think this is available to Physiotherapists, not Sport Therapists. Any suggestions or experiences would be appreciated. Thanks!

The NHS LSF supports the Allied Health Professions and nursing, midwifery and paramedic science. Sport Rehab isn't an AHP. Also, you need to be eligible for student finance to claim the NHS LSF, and sports rehab isn't an exception course for second degree funding. If you studied the subject as a masters instead, you would be able to apply for postgraduate funding (although postgrad funding won't cover all your fees and living costs). Have you considered reapplying for physio instead?
