Manchester Met's student support package
Eligible undergraduates will get financial support each year of their course, helping reduce the cost of studying in Manchester.
How we can help you fund your studies
Helping you fund your studies
We know that the decision to study at university is a big one, especially if money is already tight in your family.
That’s why we have launched our unique student support package - £750, every year of your undergraduate degree. It’s not a loan - you don’t have to repay it - and it doesn’t affect other scholarships and bursaries.
You are eligible if you are:
- a UK undergraduate or foundation year student, with a student support number from Student Finance
- from a household with an income of up to and including £25,000
- paying the full rate of tuition fees
If you are studying part-time and otherwise eligible, how much you get will depend on how intensive your course is. If the course is equivalent to half a full-time course, you will get half the standard amount.

How our support packages work
How it works
You don’t need to make a separate application - all the information we need is covered when you apply for tuition and maintenance loans.
Give your consent to share your financial data with the University when making your loan application. If your parents, guardians or partner have had their income assessed, they will also need to consent.
We will notify eligible students during the first term.
How it is paid
If you are staying in Manchester Met accommodation, we will credit your accommodation fees account with two instalments.
Everyone else will get a cash payment direct to their bank account. We will email you during the first few weeks of term to confirm your eligibility for the Student Support Package and request your bank details.
Terms and conditions

The £750 student support package has been so helpful for me. It has allowed me to pay for lots of useful things such as my bus pass, laptop, printer and my gym and swim membership.
