Grant to help with tuition fees for part-time students
You can get a Fee Grant to help pay for your tuition fees
How much can you get?
The amount of Fee Grant available to you depends on how intensive your course is. This table sets out the maximum Fee Grant you could get, based on how intensive your course is.
| Intensity of course compared to equivalent full-time | Maximum Fee Grant available |
|---|---|
| 50% - 59% | £690 |
| 60% - 74% | £820 |
| 75% or more | £1,025 |
How much you can get is also affected by your income and that of your parents or partner.

| More than £25,435 | No Fee Grant |
How is it paid?
The Fee Grant is paid directly from us to your university or college, so you will not receive the money directly.
Do you need to pay it back?
No. It is a grant which does not need to be paid back.
Anything else you should know?
You will not be awarded a Fee Grant that’s higher than the actual tuition fee you are charged.
