Queen Mary and Barts and The London School of Medicine and Dentistry bursaries
Queen Mary offers student bursaries to help with the costs of higher education.
These bursaries are aimed at students from lower income households.
The amount of the bursary you receive each year will depend on your household income which is assessed during your application for UK Government Financial Support.
Please note that all international students and those EU nationals who are only eligible for a tuition fee loan will not be eligible for a Queen Mary bursary.
Queen Mary and Westfield Alumni student bursaries
We offer two annual student bursaries of £3,000-£1,000 for each of the three years, to eligible students who have received their secondary education in the London Boroughs of Tower Hamlets, Hackney or the City of London.

The John Abernethy (Barts) Scholarships
To encourage applications from students in financial hardship who would benefit from the MB BS or BDS programme, the trustees of St Bartholomew’s Hospital Medical College Trust are pleased to offer these new Scholarships to two new medical students each year.
The John Abernethy (Barts) Scholarships, named after the founder of the Barts Medical College, who lived between 1764 and 1831, will be worth £3,500 for each of the five years of the course – subject to the holders’ satisfactory progress each year.
The scholarships have been designed to assist students who, despite exceptional academic ability and their aptitude for a medical or dental career, might not be able to undertake the course for financial reasons.
All students who enrol in the School of Medicine and Dentistry are considered for the Scholarships, which are awarded on the basis of their household income (which is reviewed annually) and the attainment of at least three grade A A-levels taken in the same sitting.
Students’ performance in their Fundamentals of Medicine/ Dentistry module (at the end of their first term) will also be a major criterion.
You do not have to apply formally to be considered for one of these prestigious Scholarships.
Instead, the School of Medicine and Dentistry will receive the relevant financial and academic information after you have enrolled and, depending on the Fundamentals of Medicine/ Dentistry results, will recommend the three best students, two from medicine and one from dentistry who also meet the financial requirements to the Trustees for their approval.
Additionally, the School will report annually to the Trustees on the Scholarship holders’ academic performance.
More information about sources of financial support for our students is available on our Student Support web site.
