Full time students in UK

sudents should study first, pay back when you’re earning

There’s a student finance package available to help with the costs of higher education. The main

sources of help for full-time students are:

1. Student Loans and grants from the government
2.bursaries from universities and colleges

If you take out a Student Loan from the government, you won’t have to start paying it back until

you’ve left your course and are earning more than £15,000 a year.

And any help that you get through a grant or bursary doesn’t have to be repaid at all.
