Financial Assistance for Students

Financial assistance may be available to help you with the cost of fees, equipment, child care or travel to the College. You do not have to be on benefits to get financial help; many successful applicants are working.

We try to support those students in most need, but the funds we have are limited and do run out, so you should apply as early as you can. Guidelines and application forms for all College funds are available now from the Student Centre, First Floor, Pelham Tower.

We have made the systems for applying as simple as possible, but it will involve filling in forms, providing evidence and telling us in detail about your financial situation. We will then make an assessment based on your personal circumstances. The funds are limited and are offered at the discretion of the College.
