UK Government confirms EU student fees and funding for 2020/21

4 June 2019

We are pleased to inform you that the UK Government has released a statement announcing that EU students applying for undergraduate or postgraduate courses at an English university (or further education institution) that starts in the 2020/21 academic year will continue to have access to student loans and grants and home fee status, and this will apply for the duration of their course.  

In the Government statement, the Minister for Universities, Chris Skidmore MP said:

“We know that students will be considering their university options for next year already, which is why we are confirming now that eligible EU nationals will continue to benefit from home fee status and can access financial support for the 20/21 academic year, so they have the certainty they need to make their choice".
