Full-time undergraduate student finance applications are open for academic year 2022/23. Both new and continuing students from England, Wales and Northern Ireland can now apply. 

The easiest way for new students to apply is through their online account. It should only take around 30 minutes.

If you can, please remind any new students who've already accepted a place at your university or college to apply for their finance.

However, new students can apply for funding even if they do not have a confirmed place on a course yet. They should just give us the details of their preferred course and change it later if they need to.

Continuing students will also need to reapply for student finance through their online account. We'll remind them through our mailing lists and on our social media, but please share the message through your own channels if you can.

EU students domiciled in Wales, England and Northern Ireland can now also apply for full-time undergraduate finance. EU students, who are only eligible for a Tuition Fee Loan, should apply using the EU Student Application Form downloaded from the appropriate website for their domicile.
