IF YOU ARE WONDERING<br />

WHETHER YOU CAN AFFORD TO<br />

STUDY A LEVEL 3 OR SOME LEVEL<br />

4 COURSES, FIND OUT ABOUT THE<br />

OPTIONS AVAILABLE TO YOU...<br />

JOANNE, 44<br />

Course: AAT Level 3 – Diploma in Accounting<br />

Advanced Learner Loans (formerly the 24+ Advanced Learning<br />

Loan) have now been expanded to people aged 19 and over who<br />

want to complete a Level 3 or 4 course. The loan is to fund the<br />

tuition fees for study of qualification courses. Repayments don’t<br />

start until you start to earn more than £21,000 a year.<br />

If you are wondering if this may be an option for you to help you<br />

achieve the qualifications you need, please see some of our recent<br />

student feedback.<br />

Joanne secured a loan of £1900 to fund her diploma. She found the application ‘simple and straightforward’ and the loan<br />

covered her full course fee.<br />

‘I did not have the money to be able to take this course and couldn’t believe there were such loans available for ‘mature’<br />

students. This has given me the opportunity to do something I have always wanted to do.’<br />

Joanne is aiming to go on to take her Level 4 qualification and to be a self-employed accountant.<br />

Loan for £3022 to help to fund her Access to Higher<br />

‘The process was easy and straightforward and the loan<br />

has enabled me to receive good quality teaching and<br />

access to resources. I have accepted a place at Leeds<br />

Beckett University to study a BA in Sociology in<br />

September <strong>2016</strong>.’<br />
