Question:
When will I hear about my bursary?
Answer:
Bursary assessment letters notifying students of whether they are successful in receiving a bursary and if so the value, are normally sent out in October. If your assessment by Student Finance England is late then your bursary assessment could also be delayed. Also if you are reassessed during the year, say if you change course or your Student Finance England assessment changes then you will receive a reassessment notification.
