Finantial help?

Does anyone know what finantial help I'm entitled to. Ive applied for the ALG but just want to know what else is out there for further education all the info Im finding is for higher education is it different? I got an appointment with student services but its not for a few weeks because its a massive college and everyone loves freebies! Im just struggling at the moment as I only work 6 hours a week.

Things change rapidly so I am not sure what is relevent. But some colleges have hardship grants so that students in trouble financially can get help. You would have to ask about that one. I had a friend who was actually unemployed and on benifits when she took her city and guilds, because it was a part-time course she was still able to claim unemployment benifit.
She also got help from the college for equipment.Good luck with your course.

i got help with my college course about 3 years ago i got my flowers staionary and child care fees paid for you just see student services and they can help you apply and i am sure you will get all the benifits as i worked 3 days a week and my husbands wage was under 12,000 so this is why i got help
it all depends if you live with parents or partner and what they earn

I'm sure theres loads of funding available. I think I was one of about three of fifteen that actually paid for my course (I'm not bitter really!) Also if you are young you can get it pretty much free if you work in a florist whilst studying. prob easier said than done. I'll ask my P/Ter as this is what she did. I dont really know much about it.

snap, only 3 of us paid for our course too! (we couldn't have been on the same course could we?) no, you would never have forgotten me - colourful by name and colourful by nature!!
