In addition, all Home students should also check whether they are eligible to receive an Oxford Opportunity Bursary. If you are a Home undergraduate or PGCE student who entered University from September 2006 onwards you may be entitled to receive a University bursary if you are in receipt of maintenance support from the UK government, you have been financially assessed and your household income is under a certain threshold.

EU students
If you're an undergraduate student from another EU country, you may be eligible to apply for financial help towards the costs of studying in England, Northern Ireland or Wales. Help may also be available if you’re a migrant worker from an EEA (European Economic Area) country or Switzerland, or if you’re the child of a Turkish worker in the UK.
