Sources of funding - Introduction

On these pages you will find information on the different ways you may be able to finance your study with us.

If you do not already have a degree you may apply for a non means-tested Student Loan to cover all or part of your fees. If you already have a degree and are on a low income, or if you do not wish to apply for a loan, we have Departmental bursaries for which you may apply.

Please look through these pages using the navigation to the left, and then contact us at registry@conted.ox.ac.uk if you would like to discuss your particular circumstances.
