Travel Expenses - University of Glasgow

Not sure if this is the right place to post or whatever but basically I go to glasgow uni and am on my first year of mechanical engineering. I live at home so need to get the bus and the subway everyday to get into Uni. Would I be entitled to travel expenses and how do i go about applying for them?

Any help would be appreciated, cheers.

AFAIK, there is no funding specifically for travel expenses, you would have to apply for a loan or grant from SAAS/get a job/borrow from relatives to pay for it.

This was stopped, apparently. It now only exists for some disabled students who can't use public transport and people who have placements.
SAAS do not provide travel expenses any more. You can read about it here:
