Agreement

If your application is successful your tuition fee grant will be paid directly to the educational establishment on receipt of an invoice.
By accepting your grant, you agree to participate in press and marketing to acknowledge the funding, and provide information upon request about your course.
We are unable to accept applications for Foundation courses – applicants can only receive a grant once and we feel they are better served by being supported on a longer, 2-3 year degree course and/or Masters.
