How do I get the Leeds Bursary?
You will need to apply for the maintenance loan and grant in order for the Student Loans Company (SLC) to undertake an assessment of your household income.
You'll be automatically granted funding from this scheme once the University has been informed of the results of the financial assessments made by the SLC.
Make sure that when you apply for your loan and grant you and your family give consent for your family income data to be shared with the University, so that we can award your bursary.
If you do not give consent we will be unable to pay the Bursary.
Please note there are some exceptions that affect eligibility.
