Pharmacy placement funding: College highlights a gap in advance payments
By MedStudy editorial · Published 26 Oct 2026
Original announcement: 1 Sept 2026
RCPharm says pharmacy students do not yet have the full Learning Support Fund access available to some other healthcare students.
The College says pharmacy students can claim eligible travel and dual-accommodation costs but are not currently eligible for the new advance-payment facility described in its September statement.
Applicants should confirm course and personal eligibility before including support in a budget. This statement concerns arrangements in England and does not establish funding for a degree taken overseas.
