LJMU Bursaries 2012/13

Many LJMU students benefit from our generous bursary scheme.  Bursaries are a bit like grants – they are means tested and you don’t have to pay them back.  You can use the money for whatever you wish; they are intended to help you with the cost of being a student.

LJMU bursaries are paid automatically to eligible students – you do not need to apply for them. However, you must meet our specified criteria which are:-

• Residency – only home students; EU or international students are not eligile for the LJMU bursary.
• Your tuition fees. To be considered for a bursary in 2012/2013 academic year you have to be paying the variable tuition fee of £3,465 if you are a continuing student or £9,000 for new students.
• You must have made arrangements to pay your fees, either by loan, yourself, your parents or another sponsor and adhered to the arrangements.
• Students studying for an Equivalent or lower Qualification (ELQ) are not eligible for an LJMU bursary.
• Bursaries are normally non-repayable.
• You must be enrolled and attending your course and you will be asked to confirm your attendance at various times throughout the year.

What bursaries are available in 2012/2013

If you have started your course after September 2011 and your household income is £25,000 or less per year you will qualify for a bursary of £500 for each year of your course. 

Please note: Different income thresholds apply for students that started pre September 2011.

You are not eligible for a bursary, if you are:

• studying an NHS programme (because your fees  paid )
