ADVANCED LEARNER LOAN
Many of our adult learners pay for their Level 3 and above courses with an
Advanced Learner Loan. If a loan is available this is indicated in the course
details. It’s easy to apply, your household income isn’t taken into account
and there are no credit checks. You only need to start paying back your
Advanced Learner Loan when you are earning more than £25,000 per
year. Please scan the QR code for more information.
