Today we had a talk about financial support at university, from the finance co-ordinator from the University of Kent to help us realise not to worry about the costs because of all the help that is out there. We were told what was available to students when going to Uni, everything to know about loans and grants.
A tuition fee is open to every new student. And there are also maintenance loans and grants. These help you with your living at University. These range dependant on what you are entitled too, because of your household incomes.
After University, there is repaying back the loans. This is all dependant on your future incomes.
Extra support can be offered for those entitled too it, for example learning difficulties etc.
The talk has helped to realise that although University is expensive, there is a lot of help out there in order to support the students to still be able to go and how money and debts shouldnt be a problem.
