Our induction officer will be there to help and support you when you apply on your enrolment. Loan eligibility does not depend on your income and there are no credit checks. You do not need to pay anything towards this course before you begin earning over the threshold amount. You do not need to start repaying your loan until your income is over a certain amount the ‘threshold’ amount which in this instance is £27,295 per annum. You’ll be charged interest from the day you get the first payment. You can apply for up to 4 loans and you can get more than one at the same time. You can apply for another loan to take the same level of a course, for example the same level qualification in Massage Therapy if you’ve already had a loan for the same level in Nail Technology.

You cannot apply until you get a ‘learning and funding information letter’ from your college or training provider.
