Eligibility for financial support depends on where you live, whether you鈥檝e studied a HE course and received support before and the type of course you鈥檙e doing:
1. Where you live
Students need to be either a UK national or have 鈥榮ettled status鈥�. You should be normally living in Wales on the first day of your course and have been living in the UK for at least 3 years prior to that, not for the purposes of full-time education.聽European Students are only eligible for tuition fee support聽and are unable to get living costs, dependent鈥檚 grants or DSA support.聽For more information see the聽听飞别产蝉颈迟别.
2. Personal Eligibility
If you already have a degree you won鈥檛 be eligible, with the exception of students who want to study a part-time PGCE. The course must lead to a recognised Higher Education course e.g. a Degree, Foundation Degree, a Certificate or Diploma of Higher Education or a Higher National Certificate/Diploma (HNC/D), or a Postgraduate Certificate in Education (PGCE).
What do I do next? How to apply
All applications need to be made via the Student Finance Wales website. You can either apply online or download an application form when the system opens for part-time applications, usually around May/June.
