Fitness to Practise Bursary

You are eligible to claim the FtP bursary if both of the below apply to you:

• You are eligible for post-application support (Groups 1, 2 and 3) under the Contextual Admissions schemes.

• You are holding Conditional Firm offer for a clinical undergraduate programme (excluding the Graduate Entry Medicine programme). See below for a full list of programmes.

Eligible programmes

• Diagnostic Radiography BSc

• Healthcare Science BSc

• Medicine MBBS 5-year

• Occupational Therapy BSc

• Paramedic Science BSc

• Physiotherapy BSc

• Radiotherapy and Oncology BSc

Unfortunately, you are not eligible for the FtP bursary if any of the following apply to you:

• You are a graduate applicant.

• You received an offer last year and deferred your entry.

• You received an offer through UCAS Clearing.

Simply complete the FtP Bursary Claim Form and email it to admissions@sgul.ac.uk with the subject line 'FtP Bursary Claim Form' by 15 July, and we'll do the rest.

Make sure you complete both tabs of the Claim Form.

Once submitted, the Admissions team will verify your request before submitting your claim to the Finance team. We will email you when your claim has been submitted to Finance, or if there are any issues with your claim that we need to discuss; this may take one-two weeks. 

Please note:

It can take up to six weeks for your bursary to be received by your bank, so we advise you to start your Fitness to Practise checks before receiving the bursary if the deadline of 15 July is approaching. The deadline will not be extended due to a delay in claiming and/or receiving the FtP bursary.
