Student Funding

I am currently on a working holiday visa in New Zealand, but I am looking at doing an online masters from the UK while I am here.
Would I be able to receive student funding for my course as I will not be living in the UK while taking the course?

Hello Amy, to qualify for a Postgraduate Master's Loan for distance learning, you need to be living in England on the first day of the first academic year of your course. You can find out more here: https://www.gov.uk/masters-loan/eligibility hope this helps 🙂 thanks, N.





Hi Amy,

No you would need to be living in the UK to get funding for a Postgraduate course.

Thanks, Drew
