Finance and support

There may be a whole range of financial support available to you from both BU and the UK Government. This support is designed to help you fund your studies by supporting the costs associated with university.

These pages have been created to give you all of the information you need about finance at Bournemouth University.

Funding Available

There are two types of funding that could be available to students studying at BU; UK Government support and BU support.

UK Government Support - This is most commonly in the form of a student loan or student grant. You can apply for a tuition fee loan, used only to pay for your course fees for university, or a maintenance loan, designed to help you with the cost of living while at university.

BU Support - There are also potential opportunities for funding support through BU in the form of a scholarship or bursary.

Note: Financial help can be based on circumstances and you may not be entitled to all funding help options.
