FUNDING

Funding

  • The way you fund yourself through university is broken down into two strands:

  1. paying for your course/tuition fees and

  2. paying your day to day living/accommodation costs - known as 'maintenance'.

  • Although this seems fairly simple, it can be quite complex depending upon your own individual circumstances.

  • Here's a great infographic from Student Finance England showing the finance journey from start to finish.
