What we work with
Why people come to us
The things you're probably thinking
Most people arrive with the same three worries. Here's the honest answer to each.
I can't afford to stop working
You don't have to. Courses are designed around adults with jobs and families — study part-time or in a format that fits your week. Nothing here asks you to give up your income.
My old qualifications won't count
Often they count for more than you think — and where they don't, a Foundation year is built exactly for that. We look at what you already have and find the route that fits it.
The paperwork is too much
That's the part we take off your plate. Application, documents, Student Finance — we prepare it with you and keep it moving. You make the decisions; we handle the admin.
How it works
Three steps, and the weight is off you
We stay with you from the first conversation to your first day of study.
We handle everything, 100% free.
We talk through your situation
A short call to understand your background, your goals and what you can realistically fit around work. No pressure, no scripts.
We match you and apply
We find the course and university that fit, prepare your application and sort your Student Finance paperwork with you.
You enrol and start
Offer accepted, funding in place, you begin. We stay reachable if anything comes up along the way.
Where you can start

Whether you're starting fresh or finishing something you began years ago, there's a level that fits.

Funding
Government funding, not your savings
Most students fund their studies through Student Finance England — a tuition fee loan paid straight to the university, plus a maintenance loan to help with living costs. You only start repaying once you earn over the threshold.

- up to £9,790paid to the university
- Maintenance loan
- up to £14,135living costs, London rate
- Repayment (Plan 5)
- 9%on earnings over £25,000
What that can mean for you
- Tuition covered by a loan paid directly to your university.
- A maintenance loan of up to £10,830 outside London, or up to £14,135 in London.
- Nothing to repay until you earn over £25,000 a year.
- We check what you may be eligible for as part of your enquiry.
Figures are for the 2026/27 academic year and may change. Eligibility depends on your circumstances and residency — we check your situation with you; nothing here is a guarantee of funding. See the full funding breakdown →
