Pre-settled status student finance clearly explained

EU Settlement Scheme pre-settled status opens the door to home fees and tuition funding — the detail sits in your residency history.

✓ Home fee status ✓ Tuition fee loan ✓ Maintenance loan ✓ Postgraduate loans

Tuition fee loan

Covers course fees up to £9,250 a year, paid directly to your university.

Maintenance loan

Living cost support paid to you each term, based on household income and where you study.

Bursaries & grants

Non-repayable university bursaries for care leavers, refugees and low-income households.

Adviser on call

One named consultant from first enquiry through to your first payment.

Your funding follows your residency

Pre-settled status confirms your right to be here. What decides your funding is how long you have actually lived in the UK or the wider EEA before your course start date.

Meet three years and you are typically looking at home fees plus tuition and maintenance support. Fall short and there are still tuition routes worth claiming — we tell you which, in writing, before you apply.

What Student Finance will ask for

Can refugees get student finance in the UK?

There is no catch. Wilor Education is paid directly by universities for each student we successfully enrol. This means our expert guidance, from eligibility check to enrolment day, is 100% free to you. No hidden charges, no service fees, ever.

I have ILR — do I pay international fees?

Indefinite leave to remain usually gives home-fee status after the required residency period. Many universities misclassify applicants, and we challenge that on your behalf.

Does pre-settled status qualify for student finance?

Pre-settled status students can often access tuition fee loans and sometimes maintenance support depending on residency history. We check your exact route.
