Student finance applications for trainees of 2022-2023 are now open!

It is quick and easy to apply online - just follow these simple steps;

Register online - trainees should create an account at www.gov.uk/studentfinance

Fill in the application - you'll need your  passport, bank details and National Insurance number. Students don’t need a confirmed place before they apply.

Provide Evidence - make sure you have everything to hand that you mighy be asked for - otherwise it could delay your application.

It can take six to eight weeks to process your application, so we encourage you to apply early to make sure you get your student finance in time for starting the course. If you apply late, your money might be late too!

You can check the progress of your application online through our new status tracker! And trainees can visit a dedicated campaign page to find out what funding is available for 2022 to 2023.

Part-time applications are expected to open in the summer, keep an eye out on Student Finance social media channels (below) for the latest information on all things student finance. You can also sign up to a mailing list here to ensure you don't miss the opening date.
