Who can apply?

Pump Priming is for researchers in EPSRC's remit; the Driving Test is for new users; NERC and commercial routes are described on the page.

How do I take the next step?

Check the service-end warning before choosing a route. Pump Priming uses a technical-assessment form sent to the service desk; confirm that a new allocation is feasible.

Recorded deadline

Recorded deadline: Scheduled service end: 20 November 2026 at 17:00 GMT. This is not an application deadline or a guarantee of provision until that time.

Check the official programme before applying. A recorded region is not a decision about your eligibility, and an allocation is not guaranteed.
