I'm a student, do I qualify for a reduced access fee?

UK Biobank offers a reduced data-only access fee of £500 (+VAT) for student researchers. 

This discounted rate is available exclusively for applications submitted by a student or their supervisor and must only be used to support the student’s individual research project (i.e. it cannot be used for multiple student projects or for broader purposes). The resulting publication(s) must be authored by the student.

Student researchers are defined as researchers who are working towards an academic qualification (BSc, MSc, MD, PhD etc.). Post-doctoral researchers and those in full-time employment do not qualify for this reduced fee.
