Eligible students should apply for a Part-Time Fee Grant (PTFG) via the new SAAS online application service.  Information for part-time students on the SAAS website has been updated to help facilitate the new online process and includes answers to some frequently asked questions.

How to apply for your part-time fee grant:

• Contact the relevant teaching department to discuss course units to be undertaken.
• Complete a college enrolment form with the unit codes provided by the teaching department - these unit codes should be included on the form.
• Email the College enrolment form to the PTFG mailbox (PTFG@forthvalley.ac.uk) and request the tuition fee amount and total number of SCQF points allocated to course units.
• Once Student Records reply with the above information for fees and credit point value, you can then complete your online SAAS application for the PTFG.
• Set up an online SAAS account (SAAS Account) and complete the online application for funding.
• SAAS will then be in contact with regards to your application and any income evidence required.
• You will still have a portion of tuition fees to pay to the College, and an initial payment of 30% must be made prior to being fully enrolled on the course.

All students, including continuing students, applying for Part-time Fee Grant Funding must now apply using the above process.
