I’m not really one to announce things like this but since you people have been wishing me well and good luck in my search for financial help for tuition fees, I thought I’d share with you some good news.
I have managed to secure a £3,000 grant for the first year of my university fees to study English Language and Literature. This is quite relieving as it means now I only have to borrow £6,000 from family and friends. It is still quite a large number but hopefully it should be fine.
Thanks for all the words of encouragement!

Wait, they’re the ones that don’t need to be repaid, right? Provided you can still have it, as in, are eligible. *searches memory for old conversations*
Essentially loans, though..I assume?
Correct me if I’m wrong. I suppose I am. To google I go!

Yup! Its a grant from another trust so not the government which means it will really come in handy 😀

Yup since its a grant so I don’t have to pay it back, a scholarship of sorts.

I’d make sure you definitely do a LOT of research for any scholarships, grants or bursaries you’re eligible for – Universities don’t like telling you when you can basically get money for free. I recently found out that I could get an extra £3000 on my student finance Wales grant because of the area that I lived in, and that my University should have told me about
But yes! Congratulations! And keep looking, in case there’s more free money 😀

Why not student finance?
(Although I understand, they are so so difficult to deal with)

Because I can’t deal in interest for religious reasons. I would actually love to be able to take a student finance loan out as it would of course make things far easier!
The longer explanation can be found if you search for the post: ‘From Headache To Migrane’ in the search bar above 🙂

yeah! I know but for me that was the only case for studying; to take tuition fee loans or else I wouldn’t have been able to go to uni. Even though things like debt and interest have a hold in my religious beliefs too, in my opinion there was simply no other choice or any way in which I would have been able to afford 9,000 a year.

I get what you mean. It is really difficult and I think religious institutions need to do more. They are realising now but more work needs to be done. Best of luck in your studies!
