Leverhulme Bursary

To be eligible to apply, you need to be:

• A resident of the UK
• Studying for a full-time undergraduate degree at a recognised UK university
• In ‘financial need’
• The child (including step child/under the care of), spouse, or those themselves who work:
• In the grocery industry
• In a community pharmacy or as a registered Pharmacist or Pharmacy Technician
• As a commercial traveller

Before applying, you should check that you are eligible by reading Leverhulme’s detailed guidance on eligibility.

You can apply for a bursary for each year of your degree course, or for the remaining years if you first apply part-way through your course. Unfortunately, we can’t offer grants for previous years of study that you have already completed.  

No, Leverhulme expect to continue awarding you a grant for as long as your undergraduate degree continues, provided that:

• You continue to study full-time, at the same university, on the same course
• Your university confirms that your academic performance is satisfactory each year
• You progress on to the next year of your course when expected
• There is no significant change in your financial situation
