New timeframes for making funding applications to the Open University Students Educational Trust

In the past, the Trust has accepted funding applications at any time throughout the year. However, due to the increasing volume of applications over recent years, the Trust has decided to specify a timeframe for accepting applications.

Applications (for funding required in advance of a module start date) that are received after the stated deadline will not be considered before the module start date.

Other sources of financial support

There is a range of financial support available through the OU to help you pay for fees and study costs. The type and level of financial support you are entitled to varies, and depends not only on where you live but on your income, previous qualifications, level of intended study and when you intend to start studying.
