Additional information

As this course is for individuals 19+ you can apply for an Advanced Leaner Loan to cover the costs of this course. Eligibility for the loan doesn’t depend on your income, and there are no credit checks and Interest is charged from the date the first payment is made to us. The Advanced Learner Loan, plus any interest, has to be paid back, but not until you’ve finished or left your course, and your income is over the repayment threshold. You may be able to get Adult Education Budget (AEB) grant funding however you will need to check this with us before you apply for an Advanced Learner Loan as you can’t get both types of support.

You can get your loan wiped by progressing and completing a Foundation or BA/BSc (Hons) degree progamme.

Student Finance England will ‘write off’ any outstanding Advanced Learner Loan balances you owe for an Access to HE course once you complete a higher education course. This means you would not have to repay the Advanced Learner Loan.
