Yes, if you’re studying our distance learning courses, there’s a good chance you’ll be eligible for a tuition fee loan. You won’t be eligible for a maintenance loan as these are for students living away from home. Fortunately, our courses are flexible and affordable so you can fit your studies around work and receive a loan to cover our low tuition fees.

The application process is the same as for full-time study. We’ve explained everything you need to know in our funding pages:

• Undergraduate student finance

• Postgraduate student finance

You’ll repay the loan in exactly the same way as full-time students. You’ll only start paying after your course has finished and you’re earning above the threshold. You can read more about this on our funding pages.

We encourage our full-time students to apply for a part-time loan as it’s enough to cover our low tuition fees and this option gives you more flexibility. That means you won’t need to change anything about your loan if you decide to switch to full-time study.

No, student loans aren’t means tested and your income isn’t part of the eligibility criteria.

Yes, you can work while studying. At Walbrook, many of our students continue to work and fit their flexible degrees around their job. Working won’t affect your loan eligibility.
