Annual nursing payments
A range of financial support is available for all eligible undergraduate and postgraduate student nurses.
What is it?
Annual payments of at least £5,000 are available to help eligible undergraduate and postgraduate student nurses fund their studies. Best of all, they won’t need to be repaid.

Am I eligible?
Every eligible* student nurse will receive at least £5,000 training grant via the NHS Learning Support Fund (LSF) [1].
The package includes:
- training grant of £5,000 per year (for new and continuing students)
- parental support payment of £2,000 per student per year to help with childcare costs
- specialist subject payment of £1,000 per year for students studying mental health and learning disability nursing (new students only)
- help towards additional travel and accommodation costs to clinical placements over your normal daily travel costs
- an exceptional hardship fund of up to £3,000 per student per academic year
*Eligibility criteria for the new funding will be the same as the wider NHS Learning Support Fund [1] [2]payable to students ordinarily resident in the UK and studying at a university in England.
How do I find out more?
Further information will be available on our financial support at university page [3] as it becomes available.
