Financial support
Advanced Learner Loan
If you’re 19 or older, you can now apply for an Advanced Learner Loan from the Government to help with the cost of your college course.
Am I eligible?To be eligible for the loan, you must be: • 19 or older on the first day of your course (there’s no upper age limit) • Living in the UK on the first day of your course, and for a minimum of three years before • Studying a Level 3, 4, 5 or 6 qualification
How much can I apply for?The amount you can receive depends on: • The type of course • Your course fees • The maximum loan available for your course
The minimum loan you can get is £300, but you don’t have to borrow the full cost of your course fee - you can pay for some of it yourself if you prefer.
You may also be eligible for support towards travel, childcare and other course costs. Contact our Student Support team for more information.
How can I apply?You can apply online or by post. You’ll need a ‘learning and funding information letter’ from us and some proof of identity, as well as your National Insurance Number in order for the loan to be paid.
An application form and more information on the Advanced Learner Loan can be found at: www.gov.uk/advanced-learner-loan
For help or advice with completing your form, please contact Student Support.
Payment plans
For UK students studying a course costing upwards of £250 and lasting for a full academic year, we may be able to offer a payment plan. This will involve a deposit being taken, followed by a monthly direct debit from October - June.
