Show Notes

For the final of three mini episodes, we speak to Paul, from our Fees and Funding Team. He shares the different financial packages available for students classed as refugees. 

Our trio of episodes have been funded by our colleagues in Make Happen.  

Based at the University of Essex, Make Happen are part of the Office for Students’ Uni Connect programme (formerly NCOP). They are one of 29 national partnerships that bring together teachers from schools and colleges, with universities and other local educational partners, to offer activities, advice and information on the benefits and realities of going to university or college, to study a degree or take a degree apprenticeship.
