What does it cover?

The purpose of the loan is to offer a contribution towards the cost of completing your postgraduate study. The student will be expected to then use the loan according to their individual circumstances (a contribution towards tuition fees and/or living costs). Applications are non-means tested.

How is it paid?

Monies are paid directly to the student (requires a UK bank account) across three instalments (usually September, January and April). If you want to then pay your tuition fees in three instalments, aligned with your loan instalments, please contact our Income team at student.finance@falmouth.ac.uk.
