Tuition fees Students aged 19+ will need to consider the following: is the course free? do I have to pay? do I need to take out a loan? If you are studying adult numeracy/literacy or GCSE Maths/English and you do not have a grade A-C (9-4) in these subjects then the course is free. If you are studying a level 2 course or below and in receipt of certain benefits (see College website for full details) then you can apply for a fee waiver. NEW! The Government are trialling a new one-year scheme to offer FREE entry level, level 1 and level 2 courses for those who are employed and earning less than 15,700 annual gross salary (evidence of earnings will be required and the scheme is aimed at those who are employed, not selfemployed). If you are aged 19-23 and the course is your first full level 2 or level 3 qualification then you may qualify for a fee waiver. If you are studying a course at level 3 and above you can apply for an Advanced Learner Loan to help pay your tuition fees (unless you are aged 19-23 and studying your first full level 3 qualification in which case you may qualify for a fee waiver as above). Advanced Learner Loan A loan to cover tuition fees if aged 19+ and studying further education at level 3 or above. Key facts You will only be able to apply for a loan to meet the upfront costs of your qualification, which will be paid directly to the College. The loan is not means tested or credit checked so if you meet the criteria you will be able to apply for a loan whether you are employed or unemployed. You don t have to pay anything upfront for your course fees. You don t have to pay anything back until you are earning over 25,000 (certain criteria apply). How do I apply? Once you have been formally offered your place on a College course you will receive a learning and funding information letter - with this you can then apply online at www.gov.uk/advanced-learner-loan. If you are receiving the Advanced Learner Loan you can also apply for financial support for course-related costs, travel, meals, IT grant, university visits and childcare via a Student Funding application form. You do not have to pay this back and it is not added to your loan. The Student Funding team is available to help with the online application form if required. Please call into the Student Funding office between 9.00am and 4.00pm, Monday to Thursday, and 9.00am to 3.30pm on a Friday.

Travel Support Assistance will be given to full-time students who live more than three miles from the College site they attend. Support will be available either in the form of a FREE bus pass or a contribution towards travel costs if you live in an area where there is no suitable bus service. You must be fully enrolled at the College before you can collect your bus pass. You can collect your pass from the Student Funding office at Kings Road. If you study at Achievement Training, you can collect it from the reception areas. Any travel costs incurred before the pass is collected will be your responsibility. Bus passes will be issued in conjunction with the main bus provider for your area (based on your home address). Bus companies are Plymouth Citybus and Stagecoach South West. To ensure your bus pass will be available from the time you are fully enrolled, your application, with evidence, should reach the Student Funding team no later than Wednesday 8 August 2018. If you apply after this date you will need to make your own way to College at your own expense, until the application is processed, you are enrolled and the bus pass is collected. This can take up to ten working days. Should you live in an area where there is no suitable bus service (mainly Gunnislake, Bere Alston, Newton Abbot, St Germans, Calstock and Exeter areas) we may be able to issue monthly travel payments, subject to attendance, to help cover travel costs. These will be a contribution to your travel costs and will be issued up to the equivalent cost of a bus pass for that area. For full-time students whose household income is over 21,000, you could still receive a bus pass from the College Transport Fund, at the subsidised cost of 300 or 510 for the year. You can apply via our Online Store at onlinestore.cityplym.ac.uk. If you have an Educational Health Care Plan (EHCP), please contact your Local Authority to discuss specialist travel support. Stagecoach South West bus passes will be issued on a termly basis subject to you remaining on your study programme.

Please contact the Student Funding team to ensure that we can provide you with a bus pass. If we are unable to support your request, you may be able to apply to your Local Authority for support. If you leave or complete your study programme during the academic year, the entitlement to travel support will end and if a bus pass was provided, it will be blocked. No refunds will be given for passes that are only used for part of the year. Please note that you will not be able to change bus company once your pass is issued. 8 01752 305110/305381 studentfunding@cityplym.ac.uk www.cityplym.ac.uk

The College takes no responsibility regarding the parking charges/fines imposed by the parking company. The College encourages car sharing where possible and has a green travel policy which aims to reduce the environmental impact of student and staff transport. 01752 305110/305381 studentfunding@cityplym.ac.uk www.cityplym.ac.uk 9
