ABOUT GRANTS

Inside a University Cafeteria, Nick is sitting at a table having lunch whilst studying from a text.

From September 2008, around two thirds of full-time students are expected to qualify for a non-repayable maintenance grant with roughly a third receiving the full amount; about two thousand, eight hundred pounds a year. There ’s even additional support for people with a disability or caring responsibilities.

This money is then paid into your account directly and you can use it to buy food, books accommodation and travel. And the best thing is, you don ’t have to pay a single penny of it back.
