Additional Financial Support

Student Support Fund

We understand that financial challenges can arise during your studies. That’s why the University of Cumbria offers the Student Support Fund. A safety net for students facing unexpected financial hardship. This fund can help with essential living costs, course-related expenses, or emergencies. It’s available to eligible undergraduate and postgraduate students who have applied for all other available funding, including student loans. Applications are assessed individually, and support is non-repayable. Our Money Advice Team is also on hand to guide you through the process and help you manage your finances confidently.

Bursaries and Scholarships

We have many scholarships and bursaries available for home students. Read more on our Bursaries and Scholarships page. International students can find out more on our Scholarships, Bursaries & Discounts page.
