When will I receive my NHS Learning Support Fund payments?

NHS LSF payments are staggered across three terms in-between your student finance payments. This allows you to receive a steady stream of funding throughout the academic year.

For new or continuing students whose academic year starts in September/October, NHSBSA Student Services opens invites to allow the University to confirm your attendance from 1 November. Once we have done this your payments will be scheduled. You may notice an expected payment date in your account. This is an approximate date; depending on when we confirm your attendance you may receive your first payment earlier or later than this date.

In term 2 and 3 you must login to your NHS Learning Support Fund (LSF) account to confirm you’re still attending. Once you’ve done this, the university can check your details and also confirm. You do not need to contact us about this as it is an automated process.

The NHS Team will contact you at the email address on your NHS LSF account to tell you when this needs to be done each term.
