Maintenance loan during year abroad outside Europe

Hi,

I'll be studying abroad (probably in North America) next year as part of my degree at the University of Bristol, and I am wondering what student finance I will be able to get.
I am assuming that I will still get a tuition fees loan to cover the (reduced) costs I will pay to UoB.
Will I still get the same maintenance loan that I've been getting while studying in Bristol?

Thanks,

Elena

Hi Elena,

When you have had funding from us before was this as a home student or migrant worker?

Thanks, Erin

Hi Erin,

I'm currently getting a tuition and a maintenance loan as a home student
Hi Elena,

Will this be mainly a study abroad year or is there a work placement involved? If it's a work placement, will this be salaried or non-salaried?

Thanks,

It's study abroad, there's no work placement involved

Hi,

You would still receive a maintenance loan for your study abroad year as a home student. We wouldn't be able to give you any information on how much this would be as we don't have the figures for the 19/20 academic year yet. You would receive our study abroad rate though which would probably be slightly more than you receive currently.

Thanks, Duncan.
