Financial support for asylum seekers and refugees applying for universitites

Many universities in the UK offer scholarships (sometimes called bursaries) to help students with their tuition fees and cost of living. Refugees in the UK are treated as home students and they may be eligible to apply for these scholarships.

To apply we advise you to take the following steps:

  1. Check your eligibility for student finance: Most refugees who have not undertaken a university degree in the past are eligible for student finance
  2. Check which universities offer scholarships: We have included below a list of universities and their scholarships for your information Read more

Postgraduate Loans

If you plan to take a postgraduate master’s course from 1 August 2016, you may be able to get a Postgraduate Loan to help with course fees and living costs.

You have to repay your postgraduate loan at the same time as any other student loans you have. You’ll be charged interest from the day you get the first payment.

The loan is paid directly to you as a contribution towards your course and living costs.

The loan isn’t based on your or your household’s income.
