FUNDING YOUR STUDIES WITH THE COST OF UNIVERSITY DEGREES RISING, YOU MAY THINK HIGHER EDUCATION IS OUT OF YOUR REACH FINANCIALLY. BUT UNIVERSITY IS NOT YOUR ONLY OPTION. 42 FOR MORE INFORMATION VISIT WWW.KIRKLEESCOLLEGE.AC.UK
STUDYING A HIGHER EDUCATION COURSE COULD BE THE BEST INVESTMENT YOU EVER MAKE – AND THERE IS MORE FINANCIAL HELP AVAILABLE THAN YOU MIGHT THINK. TUITION FEES Tuition fees at Kirklees College are significantly lower than universities and other colleges in the area. These fees cover the cost of your tuition, registration and exams. The Association of Colleges (AoC) revealed that HE students who study in FE colleges are likely to leave college with around £17,500 less debt than if they had studied their qualifications at university. With lower tuition fees, the chance to live at home, work part time, and reduce travel costs, studying a HE course at a further education college is a fantastic way to gain high quality qualifications. Our student financial support team is happy to provide information, advice and guidance on any aspect of student finance and budgeting. ADDITIONAL SUPPORT You may be eligible for additional support if you: • have a disability, mental health condition or specific learning difficulty • have one or more dependent children • have an adult member of the family who depends on you financially • claim income-related benefits or are aged 60 or above • are experiencing financial hardship You can find more information at: www.direct.gov.uk/studentfinance Students starting university or college can apply for loans to help with their tuition fees and living costs. How much money you get depends on if you study full time or part time and on your living circumstances. Tuition fee loan for full time and part time students - this covers the fees you’re charged each year for your course and is paid directly to college. To qualify, your part-time course needs to be at least 25 per cent of an equivalent full time course each year, for example four years instead of one year full time. Maintenance loan to pay living costs for full time students only. This loan is paid into your bank account at the start of each term. The exact amount full time students can borrow depends on family income, where you live, what year of study you’re in, and what help you get through the Maintenance Grant.
