Undergraduate student loans
As an undergraduate student, you can apply for a tuition fee loan to cover the full cost of your online undergraduate degree with GIS. The loan is paid directly to the university, so you don’t have to pay any fees upfront. You only begin to repay the loan once you’ve finished your degree and are earning more than £25,000 per year. If you still have a balance after 30 years, the loan is automatically cancelled.
