Extra money to pay for university
Printable version
1. Bursaries, scholarships and awards
Students in higher education can apply for money directly from their university or college on top of any other student finance. You do not have to pay this money back.
Each university or college has their own rules about bursaries, scholarships and awards, for example:
- who qualifies
- how much you can get
- how to apply
Any money you get is paid directly to you by your university or college.
Talk to your student support service to find out what바카라 사이트™s available.
2. University and college hardship funds
You could get extra money from your university or college if you바카라 사이트™re experiencing financial hardship. You may be, for example:
- a student with children, especially single parents
- a mature student with existing financial commitments
- from a low-income family
- disabled
- a student that was previously in care (a 바카라 사이트˜care leaver바카라 사이트™)
- homeless or living in a foyer
What you바카라 사이트™ll get
The amount you can get is decided by your university or college. It바카라 사이트™s paid in a lump sum or instalments.
You will not usually have to pay the money back, but in some cases you바카라 사이트™ll get a loan that you have to repay.
How to apply
Contact the student services department at your university or college - they바카라 사이트™ll decide if you qualify.
Money from your university or college will not usually be counted as income when working out your entitlement to benefits or tax credits, unless it바카라 사이트™s for day-to-day living costs.
