Leeds Bursary How much is it worth?
The amount of Leeds Bursary you receive depends on your household income and also the year you started at the University of Leeds.
UK students can choose between a cash sum, tuition fee discount or a discount on University owned accommodation. Non-UK EU students in receipt of a Tuition Fees Loan can only receive the Leeds Bursary as a tuition fee discount.
The following tables show the different levels of support available.
