Questions to check before sending
Does living-cost support mean every expense is covered?
No. Meals and accommodation are capped. Compare your accommodation quote with any funding terms offered before making commitments.
Is meeting the minimum enough to secure funding?
No. Selection remains competitive. Make your academic evidence and motivation easy to identify, and check that every attachment opens correctly.
What if I already hold this bursary?
The official document gives a separate continuation process. Existing bursary holders should use that process rather than assume a new application renews their award.
