这笔资金由政府提供. 学生 are advised to check the latest information from the government to confirm their eligibility.
学生资助大纲
2020年9月起攻读护理学学士学位的学生, 助产学二元同步通信, 理疗二元同步通信, Occupational Therapy BSc 和 Paramedic Science BSc will receive a non-repayable 和 non-means-tested payment of at least £5,每年万美元, 除了现有的主流学生支持.
There will also be additional funding available on some prioritised courses. Additional funding will also be available for childcare 和 to support regional recruitment difficulties. Total additional funding could come to as much as £3,000 per year for some students.
The new funding will be offered to continuing students as well as new course entrants.
The new financial support is intended to provide additional funding 和 不 以取代维持贷款. We would expect most students to access both the non-repayable payment 和 the maintenance loan to help finance their studies. Together these sources will provide more day-to-day support for study than has ever before been available.
常见问题
这种新的融资安排是贷款吗?
This funding is 不 a loan as it does 不 need to be repaid. It comes in addition to existing student support arrangements. We would expect most students to continue to take out a loan for tuition 和 probably also a maintenance loan to support living costs. Combined with the new payment this will give students access to more day to day support for living costs than ever before.
学生还会继续支付学费吗?
Tuition fees remain in place for healthcare students, but these are paid directly to universities through the student loans system. 学生贷款的偿还是基于收入的, which means you won’t have to start paying them back until you are earning over £25,000年.
贷款制度会继续维持吗?
The maintenance loan will remain available for healthcare students at current levels. We would expect most students to continue to access it.
包括哪些课程?
护理二元同步通信, 助产学二元同步通信, 理疗二元同步通信, Occupational Therapy BSc 和 Paramedic Science BSc students will receive the £5,万赡养费.
这笔资金只是给新生的吗?
The payments will be made to new 和 continuing students. We are waiting to hear at which point 2020 Spring intake students will receive the funding.
资金将如何管理? 学生将如何获得资助?
The payments will be administered by the NHS Business Services Authority, which already provides reimbursement for placement-related travel 和 accommodation costs. The funding is likely to be made available to students over the course of each year. More details will be published by the Government on how to apply for the funding.
这个新安排什么时候开始生效?
The Government says that the payments will be available from September 2020.
