HE Maintenance Grants

From 2007, new full-time UK students from lower income households will be eligible for a non-repayable maintenance grant of up to £2,906 a year.

Your eligibility for a grant will depend on the size of your family's income.  If your family's income is up to £25,000 or less you are likely to be eligible for a full grant of £2,906. Partial grants are available for those with a household income up to £50,020. No Grant is available if household income is over £50,021.

*The above totals apply to students enrolling at university in the autumn of 2009.  Students applying to start in September 2010 should note that they are likely to be revised to take account of inflation.
