The minimum funding for the 05/06 year was £12,000. Apparently for 06/07 it is ~£12,300 and for 07/08 it seems to be ~£12,700. Does anybody know if, as a 2nd year PhD student, I am entitled to receive the increased amount? My first months' cheque for this year was still £1000. I was really rather looking forward to the extra £5 a week. What?
Which funding body are you with? I am with AHRC, and not heard mine will increase in my 2nd and 3rd year. There are people on departmental studentships, and they are on less than 11k. If in doubt contact your funding body, they should be able to answer directly.
