SFE for five years?

So I took a foundation year and now entered a four year degree. This means I am entitled to 5 years of funding right? On my fifth year, it will be a gift year funding…how does that work? Do I apply for sfe the same way as the previous years or is it different for that gift year? Thanks!

Hi there,
The standard way we calculate funding is as follows:
- Students are entitled to funding for their course duration.
- We then award students an additional year of funding, should they need to repeat or change their course.
- We then take any previous study into consideration and this then gives a student their entitlement available for their course.

If your course is 5 years in total then you would apply as normal for the funding for the team to review. Thanks, Karen

The course I am on is four years. I’ve already done one year elsewhere then transferred. I have two years left, do I apply to funding as normal?
