Tuition fees: To be confirmed
Maintenance: To be confirmed
Most courses starting on or after 1 January 2027 use the Lifelong Learning Entitlement (LLE). You must be under 60 on the first day of the course to apply for a Tuition Fee Loan. At 60 or over, an additional living-cost loan may be available: we review this with you. If the course has not been confirmed as LLE-funded, check it with us.
For courses starting before 1 January 2027, the Tuition Fee Loan has no upper age limit. If you are 60 or over at the start of the first academic year, eligible full-time living-cost support is up to £4,582 in 2026/27, depending on household income.

Course funding does not guarantee individual approval or a particular amount.
Funding sourceTo receive a Maintenance Loan you normally need regular in-person classes during the week. A course offering only weekend attendance does not normally meet these requirements. Before enrolling, confirm the timetable and any applicable exceptions with the provider and Student Finance England.
The provider will check that you meet the English requirements for this course, whether you are a Home or international student. Declaring your level does not replace their assessment.
