In the UK, you can access higher education through a range of loan and funding options. There are loans available from the Government for undergraduate, postgraduate and postgraduate research degrees.
Tuition fee loan
All UK full-time students can apply for an undergraduate loan to cover their tuition fees. If you normally live in England, you'll need to apply via Student Finance England. They will check your eligibility and that of your chosen course. If you're eligible, Student Finance England will pay your tuition fees straight to your university. You won't need to pay anything upfront.
If you normally live in Scotland, Wales or Northern Ireland you will have different support available.
Maintenance loan
Maintenance loans are also available from Student Finance England to help with day-to-day living costs, such as rent and bills. You can apply for the loan whatever your living situation is. For example if you're staying in student accommodation or living at home and commuting.
Maintenance loans are based on your household income. If eligible, then the maintenance loan is paid direct into your bank account. You'll need to pay the loan back once you've graduated and are earning enough.
How to apply
The application process is simple. You can find out more and apply on the Student Finance England website.
You will only start to repay both your tuition fee and maintenance loans once you are working and earning enough. Visit the student loan repayment site for more information.
