The Office for Students has recently announced £15m of funding to support students across the UK experiencing financial hardship due to the cost-of-living crisis.

The funds allocated to the University of Nottingham will be used to award a one-off bursary of £150 to students who successfully apply to the Student Hardship Fund in the 2022/23 academic year – including to students who have already been awarded funding as part of a prior application that falls within this period. This is in addition to the funds that you would receive as part of the Student Hardship Fund upon a successful application.

Who can apply?

The fund is open to:

• University of Nottingham home students
• University of Nottingham home research students
• University of Nottingham international students and research students in their final year of study or research (not thesis pending periods). You may also be eligible if you have experienced an unexpected change in circumstances since the academic year started, that has impacted your finances.

Further information on eligibility can be found in our guidance notes.
