Student Finance England has now opened applications for full-time undergraduate student finance for courses starting 2025-26. You can apply even if you haven't had all your decisions back yet or made your firm/insurance choices. Just pick your best guess for now as you can change the uni later. It's something to tick off during the Easter holidays especially if you are going to be applying for the higher maintenance loan, which will require details of household income. You usually need to apply by the end of May to guarantee that your funding will be in place for the start of the academic year.

Hello Year 13s! Just wanted to say good luck for all your exams you have coming up :smile:! I was in the same boat last year (time goes so quickly :smile:) so I know EXACTLY how you feel! Just know that on TSR you have SO much support from the Grow your Grades community thread (if you are a GYG blogger - not too late to start!) to live study sessions with like-minded students and lots more on the Study Help Hub. Last year, I also made a little study discussions series full of other users' contributions that will definitely help you in exam season and beyond - check it out HERE and don't be afraid to put your own suggestions!

YOU GOT THIS AND THE WHOLE TSR FAMILY IS SO SO PROUD OF YOUUUU :biggrin:
