Applying to Student Finance

If eligible you can apply to Student Finance for a tuition fee and a maintenance loan. Information on how to apply for a tuition fee loan can be found on the student funding webpage.

When applying to Student Finance for your funding the University uses a generic course heading rather than listing all different PGCEs. Please start to type PGCE Secondary, PGCE Primary in the course box and the courses you can choose from will appear. Please then select one that is ‘current to use’. Do not select a course that has ‘do not use’ alongside the heading.

It is your responsibility to arrange the payment of your fees. 

It is important that you are fully registered as a University of Nottingham student. There are two parts to registration:

  1. Online registration
  2. In person registration – completed during the first day of your course on Wednesday 28 August 2024

If you do not complete both parts of the registration process your tuition fee and/or maintenance loans cannot be released by the Student Loans Company. The university will not be able to make bursary or scholarship payments to you.
