Student Funding Service
Tuition fees, loans, grants, bursaries — all these terms can sound confusing, but our Student Funding Service is here to help. We'll try and make the process as easy for you as possible.
Like all UK universities, Kingston has to charge tuition fees. To help pay your fees, you can take out a loan, which you then pay back after you graduate. To help with living costs, you may be entitled to:
- another loan;
- a grant (which you don't have to pay back); and/or
- a bursary (again you don't pay this back).
But you might still want to work part-time or during vacations for some extra money. It's also important to think about how you're going to manage your money before you come to university and discuss it with your parents.
Once you arrive, we do all we can to help and support you. We'll make sure you have information about money management in your first week and the chance to access one-to-one confidential advice on budgeting, money management and dealing with debt.
