This document explains the differing support from Student Finance depending on where you go and what you do during time spent on placement or studying abroad.
Key Information
The rate of Student Finance you receive during a period abroad or on placement varies depending on where you go and what you do.
Tuition fees are a reduced rate to go abroad or complete a placement year.
Maintenance loans for studying abroad or doing an Erasmus placement are awarded on a sliding scale based on your household income, but UK or non-Erasmus placements are a fixed, non-means tested amount.
You may also be eligible for the Travel Grant and the Manchester Bursary depending on your household income.
