Student Assistance Fund
Student Assistance Fund (SAF)
While you are a student, if you find yourself in financial hardship you can apply for a payment from the Student Assistance Fund. This can be due to unexpected costs or bills. Each application is assessed on a case-by-case basis for reasons such as:
- Additional travel expenses
- Books and equipment
- Accommodation
- Emergency situations
- Disability related costs
- Holiday childcare costs
- Unexpected living costs
Please Note: Funds paid to you from the Student Assistance Fund are on a grant basis and so you do not need to pay this back, unless it is found that your application goes against terms and conditions.
