Do I qualify?

Undergraduate non-medical grade is applicable to you if you are studying full-time for your first UK recognised undergraduate qualification that does not lead to qualification as a doctor, dentist or vet, and not earning any income.

Please note, the A-Level membership grade is no longer available.
