The NHS offer Social Work bursaries which range in value and they do not need to be paid back.

The bursary is:

Due to a limited amount of bursaries available, 明星八卦 recommend students who should be given priory consideration for the bursary using the following criteria:

1) Undergraduate final qualifications

2) Relevant work or volunteering experience

3) Performance during our selection event/interview stage

4) Accepting our offer of a place on the course (the sooner the better).

Those who are not initially recommended are assessed in the same way and added to a waiting list should a place on the bursary list become available.

We’re proud that 100 per cent of students who started the Social Work MA at 明星八卦 in 2019 received an NHS bursary – a reflection of the exceptional standing of our well-established programme.
