QMU bursaries

QMU bursaries are available to eligible students from England , Wales and Northern Ireland .
QMU is committed to ensuring that suitably qualified candidates are not deterred from investing in their education on the grounds of ability to pay . For that reason , we offer the non-repayable bursary package outlined below to all eligible students from the Rest of the UK , outside Scotland .
QMU will use the residual household income figure calculated yearly by the Student Loans Company ( SLC ) when assessing a student ’ s bursary entitlement during each year of their studies .
It is important when applying for your student loan that you tick the ‘ consent to share ’ box so that this can be done .
The Bursary will be a cash award , enabling students to use their bursary as they wish , for example contributing to accommodation or living costs or payment towards tuition fees .
It is paid in three instalments over the academic year : 25 % in Semester One , 50 % early in Semester Two and 25 % near the end of Semester Two .
