Grant and loan for living costs: 2018 cohort students
If you start your part-time course in 2018/19 or later and are studying a course that is at least 25 per cent the intensity of an equivalent full-time course, you are entitled to a Welsh government learning grant (base grant and maintenance grant), special support payment (if this applies) and a loan for living costs on a similar basis to full-time students (see
here and
here). However, there are differences: the total amount you can receive is adjusted by the intensity of your study, it is not affected by where you study, and the minimum income threshold for support is different.
