Higher Education study grant
If you are planning to study a part-time higher education course
(ie Foundation Degrees, HNCs, HNDs) you may be able to apply to
Student Finance England via www.direct.gov.uk for help with tuition
fees and a part-time grant of £265. Call us on 01767 626222 to find
out if your course qualifies for support. Funding available to
individuals only.
Aged 16-18?
If you are aged 16-18 on 31st August 2011, you can study some of
our courses for free. Please call 01767 626222 to find out
more.
Student Support Fund
If you have a particular hardship that would otherwise prevent
you from studying, our Student Support Fund* may be able to help
with essential costs such as books or equipment. For more details
call Student Services on 01767 626254.
* Funding is limited, so early application is
strongly recommended.
Money back guarantee
If you meet all the entry requirements for your course, attend
at least 90% of your lessons (or 95% for courses less than 23 weeks
long), complete all your course work and/or exams on time but still
do not pass your course, we will refund your fees in full. You can
be 100% confident of achieving your goals with Shuttleworth College
or we will return every penny.
Employer funded courses
If your employer is paying for your course you will need to
provide a signed letter or purchase order from your employer and we
will invoice them accordingly. This invoice is due for immediate
payment. Please note you will be responsible for all charges if for
whatever reason your employer does not pay the fees when requested
to do so. Your employer can call Bedford College Training Services
on 0300 011 2344 to speak to a Business Development Adviser.
As a further education college, we are able to access a much
wider range of funding than many private training providers. We are
experienced in helping businesses complete the necessary paperwork
to take advantage of these incentives. Funding opportunities are
continually changing, so if your employer is paying your fees call
Bedford College Training Services on 0300 011 2344 to find out what
funding you can access.
