The College Hardship Fund
The College has a Fund to help European and overseas students who are experiencing financial difficulties.
The Hardship Fund is primarily intended to assist those students who have experienced a change in their financial circumstances after registering with the College. Grants cannot be made to assist with tuition fee payment.
If you apply to the Fund then your Senior Tutor, Postgraduate Tutor or supervisor will be asked to confirm that your attendance and academic progress are satisfactory.
Applications are considered by a panel that meets once per term.
Please direct enquiries to the Student Financial Support team or call +44 (0)20 7594 8122.
