Funding

Undergraduate Courses

Eligible full-time UK students can apply for Tuition Fee Loans and Maintenance Loans. Your tuition fees are paid directly to your university. Your maintenance loans are paid into your bank account at the start of each term to support living expenses. 

If you’ve previously received funding to study at a higher education level, you may not be eligible for further student finance, but you may qualify for a career development loan. 

We recommend you apply for your financial support as soon as possible to allow time for your application to be processed. 

For more information and to check the full eligibility criteria, visit Student Finance England.

Postgraduate Programmes

You may be eligible to apply for a Postgraduate Loan with Student Finance England to contribute to your course costs. 

The amount you can get doesn’t depend on your household income. For more information about postgraduate funding, visit UCAS Student Finance Guide

To apply for a postgraduate loan, visit the UK Government website for Postgraduate Funding
