Student Learning Fund

Did you know that most students who study at City College Plymouth don’t pay anything for their course?

Courses for 16-19 year-olds are funded by the Education & Skills Funding Agency, and a wide range of courses for adults aged 19+ are either funded or partially funded too.

In addition, the College has a dedicated Funding Office that does everything it can to support students with what they need to succeed, including travel costs, meals, childcare, laptops and tech, books, course equipment, and much more.

Student Learning Fund Applications

Please note: All students, including new and continuing students, must submit a new Student Learning Fund application for each academic year.

Applications for the 2027/28 academic year will open in July 2027.

Please apply as early as possible to ensure that your support is available for the start of the academic year. Eligibility criteria and terms and conditions apply.
