Information reviewed 20 September 2026
Renewable bursaries often require students to maintain academic progress and comply with the funding agreement.
Academic progress
Many programmes require a minimum average, successful completion of modules or progression to the next year of study.
Use funds correctly
If an allowance is restricted to study-related costs, misuse can breach the bursary agreement.
Keep your student status
Some awards require full-time registration or a minimum credit load. Tell the provider promptly if your course, institution or registration status changes.
