You can apply for a government tuition fee loan to cover the cost of your fees. For more information on student loans, visit your Student Finance awarding authority webpages.
You don’t have to repay the loan until you have left education and are earning over £26,575 a year. The size of your repayments are tied to the amount of money you are earning. This means that if your salary goes down, repayments go down. If it falls below £26,575, repayments stop altogether.
If you haven’t repaid your loan after 30 years, any outstanding amount is written off (subject to government regulations). Find out more about what you pay, and when. Please note the repayment terms and conditions are changing from the 2023/24 academic year, for any student commencing their studies in the 2023/24 academic year, you will be on repayment plan 5. Find out more information on repaying your student loan.
