The provisional payments made for 2012/13 to some continuing students have now ended. The last payment was made to students on Friday 15 February 2013.
At this time there are still a number of students we have either not received an online application from through the Bursary Online Support System (BOSS) or have not yet sent us all of the required supporting evidence needed to process their application.
We would advise all students to log onto their online account here https://myaccount.nhsbsa.nhs.uk/Pages/Login.aspx to check if there is evidence outstanding or to create a BOSS application if they haven't already done so. Please remember that until we receive all of the supporting evidence, we are unable to process the application and award you any payments for the remainder of your academic year.
If you have already made an online Bursary registration or firm application via the Bursary Online Support System (BOSS) please note that the barcode cover sheet address, has now changed.
All evidence to support your claim should be now sent with the barcode cover sheet to:
NHS Student Bursaries
Ridgway House
Northgate Close
Middlebrook
Horwich
Bolton
BL6 6PQ

If you are a new student who has had an offer of a place on an NHS funded course from a Higher Education Institution (HEI) and would like to apply for a bursary now, please do so by creating a BOSS account, completing the relevant forms and sending in all of your evidence in one go, as soon as it is available.

Applications for Childcare Allowance and Practice Placement Expenses (PPE) claims are completed by downloading the appropriate form from the table below. Completed forms (except PPE) should be sent to the Ridgway House address above with your barcode cover sheet included (downloadable from the Documents section of your BOSS account). PPE claim forms should be submitted to your HEI for authorisation. Your HEI will then send them to us. Don't forget you still need to provide your HEI with your barcode cover sheet otherwise there will be delays in the processing of your claim.
The table below also contains any self declaration evidence forms you will need.
