UK Student Loans

Each year thousands of international students come to USA,UK and Australia for their higher studies. However, studying abroad often requires financial assistance for extra expenses such as travel, accommodations and materials, which can make it a greater financial commitment. In this website you can find international student loans for international students of each country.

British undergraduate and PGCE students can apply for a student loan through their local education authority (LEA) in England and Wales, the Student Awards Agency for Scotland (SAAS), or their local education and library board in Northern Ireland. The LEA, SAAS, or education and library board then assesses the application and determines the amount that the student is eligible to borrow, as well as how much tuition fees, if any, the students' parents must pay. The family's income; whether the student will be living at home, away from home, or in London; disabilities; and other factors are taken into account. 75% of the full loan (around £3,000) is available to all students in England and Wales, with only the final 25% being means-tested (taking the total available up to just over £4,600 for those studying outside London and £6,475 for those living away from the family home and studying in London). Scotland has a slightly different assessment method where more of the loan is means-tested with a minimum loan of only £840. However much you get, it is paid in three instalments during each year of the student's course (one per term). Special rules apply for some courses and for part-time courses.
