Money Matters No matter where in the world you are right now, we want to make your journey to Northumbria as smooth as possible and we believe a Northumbria degree is a valuable investment in your future.

Understanding the way funding and finances work can be quite challenging, so we’ve simplified the different types of support available.

EU Students

Financial considerations

What is a bursary?

Cost is an important factor for most students and we fully appreciate what a big investment you are making in your future. Fortunately the cost of living in Newcastle compares very favourably with many other parts of the UK.

Northumbria University bursaries are cash contributions towards your time at university, to be spent on things like food, rent, books etc.

If you are eligible for a bursary, the amount you get will depend on your household income as calculated by the Student Loans Company when you apply for support. Bursaries do not need to be paid back.

For information on fees visit northumbria. ac.uk/coursesearch – select a course then click on the fees tab to access our fees calculator.

The calculator will provide an estimate of the fee you will pay, including any discounts you may be entitled to. All courses are priced in UK pounds, however, we have added a currency converter to help you get an approximate idea of cost in your own currency.

Tuition fee loan Tuition fee loans pay for your course and all students are eligible for a loan to cover the cost of these fees, regardless of your household income.

Visit northumbria.ac.uk/ internationaldiscounts for further details on:

For more information on tuition fee loans and maintenance loans visit gov.uk/studentfinance/overview where you can also apply.

• Early payment discounts

What is a scholarship?

• Academic scholarships for high achieving students

Our generous scholarships are cash contributions awarded to high-achieving students. So if you do well in your exams before your time at Northumbria, you could be on target for a non-repayable scholarship to help with your day-to-day finances.

• T he range of extras covered by your fees, including an International Induction Programme to help you settle in and free English language tuition during your degree course, should you need it.

For further information on how to apply and your next steps, please see our easy to follow guide on pages 32-33.

EU Academic Excellence Scholarships Undergraduate Scholarships are being offered to eligible European Union (EU) students.

For further details on eligibility and terms and conditions, for Undergraduate information go to northumbria.ac.uk/ugscholarshipsEU and for Postgraduate information go to northumbria.ac.uk/pgscholarshipsEU

The University’s Student Support and Wellbeing service also has a hardship fund which can help you if you are a UK/EU student who is experiencing financial hardship, providing you meet certain eligibility criteria.

Help with living costs

Discover more northumbria.ac.uk/feesandscholarships

We’re lucky to be situated in a very studentfriendly city, with many retailers and services offering discounts for students. In fact we’re one of the most cost effective cities to live in. Many students decide to work part-time and can sign up to JobsOnline, a national recruitment website, to access 100s of parttime job vacancies. There are also other ways in which you may be able to access financial help towards the costs of living: for example, a maintenance loan (repayable) from Student Finance England or other funding body. If you are resident in the UK and are applying for a full-time course then you may qualify for a loan.

Please see gov.uk/studentfinance/overview for more information.

Selection

Hopefully you’ll receive offers from all of your chosen courses, which will either be unconditional if you meet all the criteria or conditional if you’ve still got exams to sit or have non-academic conditions.

If you’re unsuccessful in any of your choices, don’t forget you may still be able to use UCAS Extra to make other choices.

Now you need to wait to hear from universities.

You may be asked to provide further information or to go for an interview for your course. Selection processes vary for different courses.

If you miss your offer at Northumbria It may still be possible to accept you, but if we can’t then you may have to go to your insurance choice if you meet their conditions.

If you miss your insurance too You could go into clearing to find a place at university or you could take a gap year or re-sit your exams and and apply again next year.
