Grants and funding for higher education

Durham County Council did not have the information requested.

Mrs M. L. Scott

Dear Durham County Council,
I would like a list grants and funding that is available for higher education, for people 24+ living in the Durham area.
For example, I know there was funding available for higher education students who chose to spend a year studying abroad as part of their bachelor's degree.
What other funding does this LA offer.
I am specificaly interested in masters degree funding/ grants for 24+ post graduate

Yours faithfully
Mrs M L Scott

Dear Mrs Scott
Your email sent to the Council's Freedom of Information team has been passed to Children and Adults Services for a response.
The Local Authority no longer have responsibility for the administration of Student Grants for Higher Education.
This responsibility was transferred to Student Finance England (Student Loans Company) in January 2011.
Website address is www.studentfinanceengland.co.uk to which you should forward your enquiry.
Hope this helps
Yours sincerely
Hugh
