Year 12s: what will be the first way you research your future options? >>

Am I eligible for the loan?

Hello everyone,

Does anyone know if, by the time I have started an undergraduate degree course in Italy and I have completed first year, I am still eligible for the student loan?

I read somewhere that the loan is only for students applying for the first time for an undergraduate degree but I can't understand if they mean any course anywhere in the world.

I have another question... if i am eligible is it to take for granted that I am going to receive the loan?

Thank you for your help!

The loan/student finance support from UK governments is only applicable for students on UK university courses. If you study outside the UK (not on an exchange programme or at http://ulip.london.ac.uk/undergraduate_fees_funding ) then you wouldn't receive funding from the UK governments.

You can apply as an EU student for Italian grants/funding but these are based on merit: http://www.study-in-italy.it/php5/study-italy.php?idorizz=3&idvert=52&lang=EN
