I would still like confirmation regarding student support from DfEE
for students on courses the funding of which has been transferred
to Department of Health (Health related areas such as Nursing,
Midwifery, Physiotherapy etc). It appears from the recent circular
on this subject that if a student is unsuccessful in gaining a
bursary funded by the the Department of Health then they can still
apply for funding from DfEE (which would presumably make them
eligible to contribute to the £1000 tuition fee).
Good Luck
