Placement year

During your undergraduate studies you may be required to undertake a work or study placement. Lots of different factors could affect the amount of tuition fees you will be charged and, if eligible, the amount of student support you can receive - for example, the length of your placement, whether it is paid / unpaid or in the UK / Overseas.

Student Funding Advice has put together a leaflet to explain the complex issue of student finance during a placement year.

Please use the placement leaflet and then choose the appropriate insert.
