yourself (and any dependants) from your own resources. If you don’t speak the local language, would you be able to find work?
In some EU countries you may be eligible for some student grants, loans or benefits on the same basis as local students, eg housing benefits, travel concessions or grants towards the costs of study. Check what applies in your proposed country and region of study.
Support from UK sources Although the UK has signed up to a commitment to portability of educational loans and grants , this has not yet been implemented, so you are unlikely to be able to access the same entitlements you would have if studying in the UK.
A small number of grants are available from UK research councils and professional bodies for postgraduate study overseas. Contact the relevant body for your subject area to find out whether they offer anything suitable.
A small number of educational trusts and charities based in the UK may provide support for UK students studying overseas. In most cases these will only cover a small proportion of the costs involved, and funding from other sources will be needed. Information can be found in directories of educational grant-making bodies (see your local library or careers service).
A very small number of scholarships are available to UK nationals, mainly at postgraduate level, via schemes such as: • The Commonwealth Scholarships and Fellowships Plan for study in selected other Commonwealth countries
• The Fulbright awards scheme for study in the USA
• EU funded schemes for doctoral students under the Marie Curie scheme.
If I don’t want to do a whole degree abroad, what options do I have for going abroad as part of a UK degree?
