Your funding options

Tuition Fee Loan

UK and EU nationals wishing to study in September are eligible to apply for a loan for up to £6,165 per academic year for a full-time course or £4,625 per academic year for a part-time course.

If you are looking to start on our January 2018 online LLB course, unfortunately that course will not attract funding from the SLC due to the structure of the course.

• Payment for tuition fees will be made directly to the university you are studying with in three instalments.
• Once you have secured a loan, you will need to provide the university with a copy of your University and College Payment Advice letter and confirm your individual Student Support Number in order to receive tuition fee payments from the Student Loans Company (SLC).
• You are not required to repay your loan until you have completed the programme and are earning an income of over £21,000 a year. The amount you repay is calculated at a rate of 9% of your income over £21,000.
• The amount you owe will increase each year with interest. Your interest is charged at the rate of inflation plus 3%.
• You can apply for student finance online. Once you sign and return your declaration, you should receive a response within six weeks.
