Studying in UK , Need grant!

EvilGeorge

Ok heres my story, moved to the UK last year to study, as I have previously studied for a few years back home I used the grant.
Over here I have the DFES pay for my tuition but I have nothing for accomodation or food - they have a student loan scheme available to UK and NI students but nothing open to me - does anyone know of anything else out there that can help me ?

I currently have a job but its eating into my course and study time.

Thanks.

No there's nothing open to you as far as I know. To be honest, get a job....

They used to have some sort of scholarship open to Postgrads. but i think that's fininshed now.

The British Council has some info.

If you are 23, you can apply for the grant as a mature independent candidate, and I think that they do give grants for people studying in the UK.

Ask the college where you study about scholarships. There are often scholarships available to people who meet certain criteria.

other than that good luck
