Do you qualify for funding?
If you qualify as a Scottish resident, you’ll usually get funding to study at Edinburgh's Telford College. How much you get depends on the course and your situation. However, if you have only recently moved to Scotland your funding entitlement may be different.

Studying while on benefits
If you receive benefits and plan to study full-time, you need to check how your payments might be affected. The benefits system is complex and always changing, so you need to get up-to-date advice before enrolling at the college. Talk to your local benefits office or contact us before you apply for a course.

Help finding part-time work
Many students find that they need to take a part-time job to make ends meet. For information on how we can help you with this, see our Jobzone page.
