Understanding Your Student Finance Options
Clear, calm information to help you understand what support may be available, and what might affect it.
- Introduction
Student finance is government-backed support that may help eligible students pay for university and living costs.
It usually takes the form of loans that are repaid under set conditions after study. Who can apply, and for how much, depends on a range of rules and personal circumstances. Understanding these early can help you plan with fewer surprises.
Groups we commonly guide.
Student finance eligibility depends on individual circumstances, residency history, immigration status, the course and the regulations that apply at the time. HiTeck Education provides guidance only and cannot guarantee funding or eligibility.
Types of support
01
Tuition Fee Loan
May help cover the cost of your course fees, usually paid directly to the university or college where applicable.

Maintenance Support
May help with living costs such as accommodation and travel. Where it applies, the amount can depend on factors such as household income and where you live while studying.
