Student loans
& funding
Eligible full-time UK students can apply for Tuition Fee Loans and Maintenance Loans through the Student Loans Company [SLC]. 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.
