This funding is a short-term non-repayable advance, if your mainstream UK Government funding such as your student loan or NHS funding are late arriving, once you have started your course. We can assist with essential day-to-day costs, like food, travel and toiletries, but cannot assist with rent/housing costs.
- You must be formally enrolled and in attendance on your BU course
- You must have Home fee status and be eligible for a Maintenance Loan from Student Finance England/Wales/Northern Ireland or the Students Awards Agency Scotland
- You must be able to show that you have very little or no funds remaining
- You may need evidence that you have applied for your student financial support
- You will need to provide your bank account details, for the payment to be paid to you.
There may also be other options available such as food vouchers which may be more suitable or support from the SUBU Community Kitchen.
Please contact AskBU for further information on the support which is available and how to apply.
