Student Awards Agency for Scotland (SAAS) provides Discretionary Funds to institutions. Guidelines issued by SAAS suggest that where a student is eligible to take out an SLC loan and has not done so then it would be reasonable to conclude that his or her circumstances were not sufficiently difficult to warrant assistance from the Discretionary or Childcare Funds.

Information

Funds are limited and we advise applicants to submit completed applications (including all supporting documents) as soon as possible after the start of the academic year.

Any funding awarded is unlikely to meet all needs and is not intended to be a student's primary source of income.

Long term awards will be paid in monthly instalments as a non-repayable grant; short term awards will generally be paid as a one-off non-repayable grant.

Childcare costs will be verified in liaison with childcare providers and any fraudulent claims reported as appropriate.

Childcare Fund awards are paid direct to students; we do not pay childcare providers direct.  It is your personal responsibility to ensure your childcare provider receives payment for the service provided.

Any student eligible to apply for a Student Loan is required to upload documentary proof of their full Student Loan entitlement when submitting an application. It will also be assumed that any assessed parental contribution is received in full unless a letter is provided detailing contrary circumstances.

Discretionary Fund - What support is available?

Accommodation Costs

Grants for accommodation costs will only be awarded if you live in:

• Your own home
• Accommodation rented from a private landlord
• A Council/Housing Association property
• Accommodation sub-leased from the University
• The University residences.

Support will not be provided towards particularly low accommodation costs or students who stay in the family home.

Student Carers

Students who are carers may be awarded a grant in recognition of the extra costs associated with this status.  Please clarify your status as a carer in your personal statement and upload any documentation which verifies your status.

Estranged Students

Estranged students may be awarded a grant from the fund in recognition of extra costs associated with this status.

An 'estranged student' is someone who no longer has the support of their family due to a breakdown in their relationship which has led to ceased contact. This might mean biological or adoptive parents or wider family members who have been responsible for supporting a student in the past. Estranged students have no experience of being in care and do not have a corporate parent responsible for them.

The University of Glasgow has specific support in place for estranged students, so if you are not care-experienced, but will be studying without the support of your family, please let us know.

Declaration of estrangement here will always be treated confidentially, and will only ever be used in a positive way, allowing us to contact you in regards the extra support that is available for you.

Disability

You may be eligible for a grant if you have additional costs arising from a disability, which are not already met by a grant awarding agency.

Mature/Independent Students

You may be eligible to receive an additional grant from the Discretionary Fund if:

• You are 25 or over on the first day of the current academic year
  or
• You are under 25 but have been granted independent status by your funding agency and are experiencing financial hardship

You will not be considered as a mature student if you receive any young student bursaries or allowances.

Part-Time Undergraduate Students

Part-time undergraduate students may also be eligible for support towards course and travel costs. You must be studying 60 credits or more.

What are my tuition fees?	You can check your tuition by logging into your MyGlasgow account. Further information on tuition fees for RUK students is available here.
Am I eligible for any additional funding as well as my Student Loan?	If you agree to share details of your household income with the University of Glasgow (answer "yes" on your Student Loan application) you will automatically be considered for the RUK Access Bursary. If you are an undergraduate student, your admissions application will be used to assess you for the RUK Excellence Scholarship. The Scholarships Team will contact you direct if you are awarded either of these funds.
How do I get paid?	Sign and return your loan paperwork to Student Finance/SAAS. Enter your Student Support Number (13 characters) from your loan paperwork on MyCampus when completing registration. Complete registration on MyCampus. The University of Glasgow will confirm your registration to the SLC, who will release your maintenance loan.
When will I be paid?	Provisional payment dates will be listed on your loan paperwork however before you can receive payment you must complete registration on MyCampus. After you complete registration on MyCampus it can take approximately 8 working days for your payment to reach you.  Subsequent payments should reach you closer to the dates listed on your loan paperwork.
What happens if I apply for my loans late?	You will still receive your full loan entitlement for the year, but your first payment will most likely be late. If you apply late you will be personally liable for tuition fees until your Tuition Fee Loan is approved.
My maintenance loan payments are incorrect.	Contact Student Finance or SAAS.
I am repeating a year of study, what do I do?	Create a support call via your MyGlasgow page providing as much detail as possible and assign to the Financial Aid team within the Registry. The Financial Aid team will then submit a Change of Circumstance request on the SLC system to update your loans. If you are repeating on an Exams Only basis you are not eligible for Student Loans. If you are repeating on a part time basis you may not be entitled to Student Loans, depending on the circumstances.  For example, if you are only enrolled on semester 2 courses you may only be eligible for loans for that part of the year.
Student Finance has told me the University needs to submit a Change of Circumstances.	Create a support call via your MyGlasgow page providing as much detail as possible and assign to the Financial Aid team within the Registry.
The University has contacted me regarding a tuition fee debt but I have a fee loan from the SLC.	Make sure your 13 character Student Support Number is recorded on MyCampus. Check your loan paperwork and MyCampus fees to ensure you have loans for the full fee. Create a support call via your MyGlasgow page providing as much detail as possible and assign to the Financial Aid team within the Registry.
The University is charging fees for my final year but my course on the Student Loans system doesn't allow me to take out a fee loan.	Please contact the financial aid team, who should be able to create and assign you to a course which includes fee loans for your final year. This situation can occur when you have already benefitted from a 'free' year, where no tuition fees were charged by the University e.g. a Study Abroad year.  When this happens, you will be charged a fee for your final year (excluding 5 year language degrees which do not charge fees for the year abroad or the final year).
How do I confirm my Study Abroad arrangements with Student Finance?	Please indicate on your loan application that you will be abroad and provide date/location details. Student Finance should then issue you with a Course Abroad Form (CAB1), which can be signed off by the University of Glasgow team organising your period abroad (normally the Study Abroad Team or your College/School Office).  Completed CAB1 should then be submitted to Student Finance. Study Abroad may entitle you to additional funding or early loan payments; please liaise with Student Finance for further information.
I was supposed to be overseas for the full year but have returned early.	Please notify your course admin contact, Financial Aid team and MRIO Go Abroad team via email. Please note your fees for the year will increase if you return early however these can normally be covered by an SLC tuition fee loan if you notify the financial aid team.
I want to withdraw from my studies.	Please liaise with your advisor of studies and course admin contact and submit a formal withdrawal request. Please consult the refund policy for information on your tuition fee liability in event of a withdrawal from studies.
I am transferring to the University of Glasgow from another University.	Make sure your 13 character Student Support Number is recorded on MyCampus.  Create a support call via your MyGlasgow page asking for a Transfer In Change of Circumstances to be submitted to the SLC.  Assign to the Financial Aid team within the Registry.
I am transferring to another University and leaving the University of Glasgow.	Please follow the withdrawal process as above and ask your new University to submit a Transfer In Change of Circumstance via the SLC portal.

When creating a support call via MyGlasgow please include your name, student number and SLC student support number (13 characters).

  and
• Be in receipt of your full bursary entitlement.

Available funds are limited and we advise applicants to submit completed applications as soon as possible after the start of the academic year.

Discretionary Fund

Grants for accommodation costs will only be made to you if you are living in:

• Your own home,
• Accommodation rented from a private landlord,
• A Council/Housing Association,
• Accommodation sub-leased from the University, or

Additional eligibility information

Student Awards Agency for Scotland (SAAS) provides Discretionary Funds to institutions.

Any student eligible to apply for a bursary will therefore be required to produce documentary proof of their full bursary entitlement when submitting an application form. It will also be assumed that any assessed parental contribution is received in full unless a letter is provided detailing contrary circumstances.

"...thanks so much for your help. You do so much to go above and beyond for all us American students and we couldn't manage to be here without you."

"I am not sure if I will see you again on campus, but I wanted to say one last time that I really appreciate the assistance you gave me. My financial experience at my old university was horrific. I have been more than satisfied with how smoothly this has gone, especially considering how difficult the U.S. government can be. I wish you the best with everything and hopefully I'll possibly see you around again at graduation."

"Thank you so much for assessing my claim - this is such fantastic news I find it difficult to express my elation. The award of the fund greatly alleviates stress relating to my current financial situation.  Without the fund I would have found it pretty much impossible to complete the PGDE programme, and I am immensely grateful to the University and yourself for the assistance in this matter."

"Thank you so much! I really, really appreciate it!  Over the past year, I have felt extremely worried about my debt and how I'd be able to pay it back, but this fund will save me a lot of stress and I'l be able to cut down hours at my job to really focus on my degree!"

"Thank you very much! This fund has been a lifesaver for me over the last few years and I really appreciate all of the help.  Thank you again."

"The Financial Aid team has been extremely helpful in my experience. Not only were they able to help financially, but I was also lucky enough to be able to sit down and discuss my situation with a member of the team. This meeting was extremely helpful and provided me with a great deal of clarity regarding my financial situation. The application was straightforward and the Financial Aid team were able to answer any questions I had. The fund offers students with needed help that is unavailable elsewhere and the help I received has reduced a substantial amount of stress.
I would like to thank all of the Financial Aid team, the work you do is integral for some students to get by. I am extremely grateful for the help you were able to provide and wish you all the best."

The Financial Aid Team are responsible for the management and administration of approximately £37 million of funds each year that are provided to University of Glasgow students from a variety of sources including the UK Government and United States Department of Education.  Student Financial Aid is a small team comprising of five members of staff working a mixture of full-time, part-time and term-time hours within the University of Glasgow Registry.

As well as administering the funds detailed below the team also manage the weekly and monthly BACS run processes, which facilitates payments to funded students via the MyCampus system.  A typical monthly BACS run provides over £2.1 million of funding to University of Glasgow students.

The funds available via the Financial Aid Team are intended to benefit as many of our eligible students as possible and allow them to complete their studies at the University of Glasgow.  Each academic session, the Financial Aid team organises the provision of financial support and funding to over 4,000 students.
