Are you over 19 years old and wanting to study for a Level 3 qualification? Would you like to know more about 19+ Advanced Learning Loans? If you are over 19 and applying for a Diploma course at Level 3 or above, you will need to pay the full course fee - there are no subsidised rates available to 19+ Level 3 learners. The full course fee covers ALL costs of your course including tuition, exam fee, CRB (where necessary) and linked course resources. Provided you meet all the criteria for studying at our centres and have been offered a place on your chosen course, there are 2 ways in which you can meet the cost: • You can pay the full fee yourself either as a one-off payment or in an agreed pattern of instalments.
8
Although the loan from the Student Loan Company is repayable, repayments do not apply until you reach an annual income of approximately £21,000 and, in any case, at that point monthly repayments are very small. Newham Adult Learning Service fully supports the Student Loan application process for students as we are aware it can be daunting for those who have not applied for this type of loan before. If you are thinking about taking a Level 3 course and would like more information about applying for a loan, or have decided to take a loan and would like help with the application process, please contact:
• You can apply to the Student Loans Company for an interest free loan to cover the costs of your course fee.
Ashley Hughes on 020 3373 0297 for more information and help with completing your loan application.
The monthly payment is made directly to Newham Adult Learning Service so you do not have to worry about making payments for your course once your loan is agreed.
You can apply for a 19+ Advanced Learning Loan in respect of any course which is identified by the 19+ logo.
