Mature student grants

simloc

Hi

I have the opportunity to apply for a social work degree funded by my employer, however the amount of study time required will mean I am unable to work the additional hours I currently do at weekends in order to earn an essential minimum monthly income.

I have checked out some grant websites but to no avail. Does anyone know of any sources of grant funding please?, I need approx £1500 per year for three years.

You could try googing for ALG (adult learning grant)

The Adult Learning Grant is not available to those taking degrees.

simloc, you need to give more information about what income you will have whilst studying.

I would be very surprised if you could not manage a few hours in a pub whilst studying (you could get £1500 a year by working approx four hours a week at minimum wage).
