Advanced Learner Loans

Aged 19 or over? Returning to education?

Invest in your future!

If you’re planning to study at Level 3, 4, 5 or 6 and you’re aged 19 or over (on the first day of your course) you may qualify for an Advanced Learner Loan to help pay for your course fees. These government loans are easy to apply for, your household income isn’t taken into account and there’s no credit check. You begin to repay the loan through the tax system when you complete the course and earn more than the repayment threshold. Please visit: www.gov.uk/repaying-your-student-loan for more information.

The loan pays for your qualification and is paid directly to us, so you won’t have to worry about sorting payment out. It’s a great way to get a qualification that you may not have previously been able to afford!

Note: the loans do not cover Degrees or other forms of Higher Education such as HNCs or HNDs. For HE funding information go to www.gov.uk/studentfinance
