Closed Provide Loans to Healthcare students wishing to study abroad due to COVID-19

Closed on

Provide Student Finance Loans to Medicine, Dentistry and Veterinary Science UK Students who because of COVID-19, have not and will not be accepted to UK Universities (due to lower-grade predictions and inability to resit) and so as a result of this, are looking to study their desired degrees abroad.

Students of 2019, 2020 & 2021 were put at a disadvantage by having their grades selected for them. Many have and may miss university places.
The competitive nature of healthcare degrees puts these students at a disadvantage compared to those studying uncompetitive courses.
It prevents students from having to settle with studying degrees they never wanted to do.

With the situation of rising unemployment due to COVID, more pressure is added to parents paying their children's university fees abroad
