Students aged 16-19

If a student is under 19 years old on 31 August in the year they start a course and are enrolling on course with government funding, such as the full time courses they do not need to pay tuition or exam fees.

Students may have to pay a materials charge for a course, covering the costs of books and equipment, and for trips. The course information will tell a student this, or they will be told at enrolment and in the course offer letter. 

Additional funding may be available to support study.
