Fee assistance

Students attending or accepted for a first degree course at a Scottish University, who were born in Scotland or who have a parent born in Scotland or who have at least three years of secondary education in Scotland, and whose fees are not being paid by any other body, may apply for assistance with fees. To be eligible they must also demonstrate that they would suffer hardship if assistance was not given. No other form of assistance is available and applicants must satisfy the Trustees that they could support themselves or be supported if assistance were given. Assistance will not be given with fees for Open University courses, access courses, sub-degree courses, Higher National Certificates/Diplomas, or postgraduate study.
Applications, which must be made on the application form which is available on line but must be returned in hard copy, are considered between April 1st and October 1st for assistance with fees for the next academic year.
