EU students are eligible to apply for a tuition fee loan from the Student Loans Company. You may apply for all or part of the fee to the maximum payable for your course.
For students starting in the academic year 2011-12 the tuition fee for full time undergraduate courses is £3,375.
The Student Loans Company will pay the fee directly to the
University on your behalf in two equal instalments – March and May 2012.
The repayment of the loan will start when you have graduated and are earning a salary

As well as help with tuition fees, you may be able to apply for help with living costs and certain other expenses - provided you meet certain residency conditions.
Help may
also be available if you’re a migrant worker from an EEA country or
Switzerland, or the child of a Turkish worker in the UK.

The University of Bedfordshire offers a range of bursaries and scholarships which EU students can apply for. See the scholarships and bursaries section for more details, updates and application forms.
This bursary is available to students who are ordinarily resident in England and who are on an approved non–graduate or undergraduate course (full–time or part–time).
The bursary is non–income assessed, which means that sources of income are not taken into account. The amount is dependent on individual circumstances.

Business Services Authority NHSBSA. See the NHS funding section for more details.
Nursing students are eligible for a means tested bursary.
It may take some time for your bursary to be processed and paid, so you are
strongly advised to ensure you have ready access to enough money to meet your
living and travel costs for the first 12 weeks of your course.
