Student Finance

discover your options

We are committed to making education as accessible and affordable as possible. Whether you’re enrolling in our Higher Education programme, or Further Education courses, there are a range of financial support options that may be available to you to help you manage the cost of your studies.

You are not guaranteed to receive funding from any fund, and we encourage students to plan to be able to support themselves financially before joining us in case your applications are not approved.

If you need personal guidance, feel free to reach out to our Student Journey Team by emailing: StudyFE@blackmountainscollege.uk — we’re here to help.
