In England, EEA nationals will no longer be eligible for Home fee status, for further education (FE) funding for those aged 19+, student loans and apprenticeships.

EU students starting courses on or after 1 August 2021 must have settled or pre-settled status in the UK under the EU Settlement Scheme to have access to publicly-funded FE courses, student finance and apprenticeships.

This does not apply to students who are Irish citizens. For further information visit Studying in the UK: guidance for EU students – GOV.UK (www.gov.uk)

It’s important that EEA nationals are aware of this requirement as the application deadline for the EU Settlement Scheme is 30 June 2021, you must have started living in the UK by 31 December 2020 to apply.
