Financial Support
We understand that managing your finances can feel daunting, especially if budgeting is new to you. That's why we offer various support services, such as budgeting workshops and one-on-one advice sessions, to equip you with the tools and confidence needed to effectively manage your money.

Students may also be entitled to help with covering their living costs. A maintenance loan could help you pay for accommodation, travel, food, books, and entertainment. There may be other circumstances that mean you need extra support to pay for your studies, such as a disability or you care for a child or adult. Use the student finance calculator to check what you are entitled to.
