Requirements

Is this for you?

Registered students of the University shall be eligible to apply to the Fund if they meet the following criteria:

• A payment from the fund would make a significant contribution to your ability to continue your studies successfully; and
• You have an urgent housing need that can be addressed through an award by the fund; and
• You are unable to meet the immediate costs of your housing needs through your existing funding.

The level of award will be judged on a case to case basis. Awards are around £300-£500 and are intended to meet immediate short term housing need. Because of this the fund cannot be used to replace a regular income. Awards will normally be made in the form of a grant.
