Children's Special Educational Needs Foundation Degree FdA: Applying for funding

Find out how to apply for financial support

Students from England

Students from England can apply online via Student Finance England.You should apply as early as possible in order to avoid any delays in receiving your student finance when you start your course – the application process is usually available soon into the New Year.

You will be able to use your UCAS user name and password and give consent for data from your UCAS application to be used for your student finance application. Once you (and your parents, guardians or partner) have completed the financial information, you will receive information about the student finance available.

Once the assessment has been completed, Student Finance England will send you a Declaration Form that you must sign and return to them. No student finance will be paid to you until you have returned this form.

If you prefer, you can also apply on paper. If you decide to apply on paper, put Kingston University as your institution and use the university code K84.
