Bursaries

The University of East Anglia is delighted to announce that changes to the form in which students will receive their support from the University have been approved by OFFA (The Office For Fair Access). Students do not need to apply for bursary support, all students are automatically considered using household income information received from Student Finance England. Eligible students will be contacted in September. 

For 2012 entry the University will be offering the following bursaries for Home and EU students:

Criteria	Support Amount	Duration
Household income less than £16,000	£3,000	per annum for up to four years* of undergraduate study
Household income £16,001 to £20,000	£2,000	per annum for up to four years* of undergraduate study
Household income £20,001 to £30,000	£1,000	per annum for up to four years* of undergraduate study
Science Foundation Year or Computing Foundation Year with household income less than £42,600	£4,500	Foundation Year only
Care Leaver	£3,000	per annum for up to four years* of undergraduate study

* Support is provided for no more than four years of study even if course is longer. Note that a Foundation Year counts as one year of study towards your maximum of four years of bursary support. 

Support is on a fee pro-rata basis for those students paying half fees or less. If a student has an income of under £16,000 and is a Care Leaver, they will be eligible for a £3,000 fee waiver. 

The form in which eligible students will receive their bursary can be chosen by the student from the following option:

• Full bursary amount as a fee waiver (default option)
• Full bursary amount as a University accommodation discount
• £1000 cash bursary, and remaining balance as an accommodation discount or as a fee waiver
• Full bursary amount in cash (this option is only available for students in their second year onwards.)

Support for students with a household income of less than £16,000 is provided as part of the Government's National Scholarship Programme.

Students on NHS funded courses (i.e. where no fee is payable from the student) offered by the University are not eligible for a University bursary. NHS funded courses are those offered by the School of Nursing Sciences and School of Allied Health Professions.
