Understanding how student finance works is the first step to university. We break it all down — tuition fee loans, maintenance loans, grants, and what you're actually entitled to.
Covers your full tuition (up to £9,250/year). Paid directly to your university — you never see this money yourself. Repayments only start when you earn over £25,000.
Paid into your bank account each term to cover living costs. The amount depends on your individual circumstances. Its up to £16,000/year.
Free money you never pay back. Disabled Students' Allowance, childcare grants, adult dependants grants — we check every one you're entitled to.
You repay 9% per year of anything you earn above £25,000. After 30 years any remaining balance is written off. It's more like a graduate tax than a traditional loan.
You may still qualify for student finance even if you're not a UK citizen. ILR, settled status, refugee status, and protected persons all have pathways to funding.
Up to £13,227 for a Masters degree. Up to £28,673 for a Doctoral degree. A separate loan from undergraduate funding — and we help you apply for both.
