Loans, grants and bursaries

For more information on any of these sources of funding, take a look at the Student Finance section.

There are all sorts of different types of financial support can you apply for. Funding will depend on your personal circumstances, your course and sometimes where you live. A lot of funds are 'income assessed' so you'll need to provide details of your financial situation.

It's important you research what financial support you may be entitled to. It can be complicated, but by doing research and asking for advice you'll ensure you apply for everything you can in good time.

By entering your details into this page, you will get a guide to what you could get. Why not print off this page once you've completed it and take it when you see a university adviser to talk through your options?
