WebsitePharmacist Support’s Student Bursary Scheme
Once a year the charity opens its national bursary scheme to all fully accredited pharmacy schools in Great Britain.
3rd (or 4th year if undertaking a 5 year sandwich degree) MPharm students facing unexpected adversity can apply and successful applicants can receive a bursary of either £3,000 or £5,000.
To apply students must demonstrate financial hardship, outstanding and exceptional qualities to overcome an ongoing adversity, an endorsed expectation by their university of a positive contribution to pharmacy in Great Britain and sound academic performance.
Further information and dates will be announced in January 2022 detailing when the Bursary Scheme will be opened for applications.
Any grant provided by the Charity is done so at the discretion of the Charity’s Trustees and there is no statutory or other right for an individual to receive a grant.
