There’s no upper age limit for Tuition Fee Loans or grants.
If you’re 60 or over
You may get limited funding for Maintenance Loans if all of the following apply:
- you’re 60 or over on the first day of the first academic year of your course
- you’re studying full-time
- your course started on or after 1 August 2016
The amount you can apply for depends on your household income.
