Is anyone out there a NERC funded PhD student?

I have been offered the place and everything, but the uni cannot guarentee me accomodation until i have confirmation (presumably written) of my funding, and this has to be before 31st July.

Does anyone know when my actual confirmation will come through from NERC?

Muchos thanksos

Hi,

It was a while ago for me, but I remember the whole thing running pretty smoothly, and I think I got my funding confirmation in July/August

Probably the best thing to do is phone the relevant funding person at NERC (it's a different person depending on if your University is A-Leeds or Leicester-Z) www.nerc.ac.uk/funding/contacts.shtml

Your supervisor would also be a good person to keep informed; mine was very good in sorting most of this out for me.

Hope that helps,

Dan
