Undergraduate funding from SAAS

How to apply for SAAS funding 

Submit your SAAS application 

You can apply for SAAS funding for the forthcoming academic year from April on (for example, you can apply in April 2025 for funding for the academic year 2025-26). You should apply for SAAS funding by 30 June to ensure that the funding is in place for the start of your programme.  

Make sure that you tick the tuition fee box on the SAAS application form. 

The University cannot apply for SAAS funding on your behalf. 

SAAS will confirm the funding to you and the University. You do not need to send the award letter to the University. 

Apply for funding on the SAAS website 

Register online as a student and arrange payment of student academic fees

As part of matriculation, you will need to complete online student registration and either confirm your funding or arrange payment of your student academic fees. This is a required step in the registration process, and in most cases, you will be able to pay in instalments.

Funding confirmed

If your SAAS funding has been confirmed before you begin the online student registration process, but  does not cover the full student academic fees amount, you can pay the remaining balance either in full by card, bank transfer, or by setting up an instalment plan to complete registration.

Funding unconfirmed

If your SAAS funding has not been confirmed before you begin registration, you will be asked to provide card details to complete the registration process. These details will be used to set up an instalment plan for your student academic fee payments.

Once your funding is confirmed, if no fees are due from you, the instalment plan will be cancelled and any payments already made will be refunded. This may happen if your SAAS application was submitted late and confirmation was not received before the first payment date. Please note, funding confirmation needs to be received at least 7 days before a payment is due to prevent the payment from being collected.

If funding information is received after you complete registration and does not cover the full amount, you will receive an invoice and you can either pay the remaining balance via My finance channel in MyEd or keep the instalment plan set up during registration.

Where to find your financial information

You can see your student fees account transactions like student and sponsor fee invoices, credit notes, payments received including scheduled instalment amounts and dates when you log into MyEd and go to My finance.

If you need to make a payment

You will be asked to:

•  provide card details to continue with online registration if the award of the funding has not been confirmed by SAAS[GL1]
• make a payment, or set up an instalment plan if the amount of funding is less than the fees due

If you believe you should have full funding then please contact SAAS first to find out more information before contacting the University. 

If funding information is received after you complete registration and does not cover the full amount, you will receive an invoice and you can either pay the remaining balance via My finance channel in MyEd or keep the instalment plan set up during registration.
