As the University's Financial Assistance Funds are limited and receive a high volume of applications, you should speak to your College Tutor and explore all other sources of financial assistance, including funds available at your College, before approaching the University for financial assistance. 

Students in zones of conflict who are in financial need should apply to the Undergraduate Financial Assistance Fund or Postgraduate Financial Assistance Fund
