Wanting to study in the UK

Hello,

I have been out of formal eduation since highschool, I want to get back into studying and go Uni, however I did all my qualifications in Canada but I am now a UK national. How would my entry requirements work and student loan funding?

Thank you

Hi there,

Can you confirm the course and university you're looking to study and when?
How long have you been in the UK? What qualifications do you hold?

Thanks,
Claire

Based on what you have advised you wouldn't be eligible for finance with us as you haven't been in the UK for 3 years before the first day of the first academic year of your course. I would suggest speaking to your university you wish to attend to see if they know of alternative funding options.

Thanks,
Claire
