The Student Hardship Fund is distributed to students in financial need in the form on non-repayable grants. Eligibility for an award is assessed on an individual basis and money may be granted to help towards a shortfall between income and essential expenditure.
 
Students with undergraduate funding 'home' fee status must have taken out their full student maintenance loan entitlement before applying to the fund. 


In assessing applications the University adheres to national guidelines on hardship support and has very limited discretion with regards to individual cases.
