Full transparency

Student Finance: what it is and what it isn't

✓ What it is

  • A government loan - yes, you do repay it
  • You repay 9% only on what you earn ABOVE £25,000/year
  • Under £25,000/year income - zero, automatically, no explanations needed
  • Wiped completely after 40 years, whatever the balance
  • Never passed on to your heirs
  • On a £30,000/year salary you'd pay ~£37.50/month

✕ What it isn't

  • It's not a standard bank loan
  • It doesn't affect your credit score
  • You don't pay if you're not earning enough
  • It's not "free money" - but it's not risky debt either

Let's do the maths together

So I DON'T pay £500/month⁉️ Let's see exactly how much!

We were asked this question publicly:

Why now

Why September 2026 is different from any other intake

Anyone who enrols NOW

Stays on the current rules for the whole degree (3-4 years). Not the case if you enrol from 2027 onward.

⚠️

Anyone who waits until after January 2027

Moves onto the new system: a lower repayment threshold than £25,000 (compared to £25,000 now), a fixed 3.2% interest rate. In short, you pay more, and sooner.

📅

What actually matters

It's not your application date that counts - it's your course's START date. As long as you start this autumn, the 2027 rules won't apply to you.

Information verifiable on gov.uk. This isn't artificial urgency, it's a real change in the law coming in 2027.

Is this you?

Are you one of these people?

🏗️ Physical labour, 40+

Your body doesn't hold up like it did at 30

You work in construction, a warehouse, delivery, cleaning or hospitality. You're 38-54 years old. Viorel started at 44, coming from construction. He's now doing a master's.

You've kept putting it off

You've been telling yourself "there's still time" for 5-10 years

There's always something - work, family, September feels too close. Anda told herself that for 13 years. Her only regret: not starting sooner.

📄 No documents from home

You don't have your diploma or paperwork from your home country

You don't have your diploma, or your paperwork from your country of origin. The Foundation Year was built exactly for this. You can apply without documents from home.

September 2026. Places available now.

The check takes 2 minutes. It costs nothing. A real advisor will contact you within 24 hours.

Let's be honest

What's been holding you back until now

"My English isn't good enough"
Conversational English is enough for admission. And we prepare you for free beforehand.
"I'm too old at 40"
Viorel started at 44. He's now doing a master's, at 49.
"The agent will take my money"
Zero. The agent is paid by the university once you're enrolled. You don't pay a thing.
"I'll end up in serious debt"
It's a loan - but you only pay 9% on what you earn above £25,000/year. Below that threshold it's zero, automatically.
"I don't have time alongside my job"
2 days a week. 68% of students work full-time at the same time.
"I don't have my documents from home"
The Foundation Year doesn't require documents from your home country.
"I don't know if I can handle it"
We prepare you with mock interviews and English sessions before day one.
