We believe in the value and usefulness of our courses, and we are also committed to ensuring that our courses should be within the means of all. We therefore offer a more comprehensive programme of scholarships and discounts than any of our competitors. Details are given below.

* Please note that Uniprep must receive your application four weeks before the start date of your course for you to be eligible for our scholarship and discount scheme.

Discounts
Discounts on Uniprep courses are offered on the basis of financial need.

To be eligible for a discount, you need to be domiciled in the UK and receiving the Educational Maintenance Allowance (EMA)*, which was available to students aged 16+ who had lower family incomes and were continuing in education, or you need to be receiving the new 16-19 bursary.

You will need to provide a copy of bank statement showing EMA/ a bursary has recently been paid in to your bank account (you can blank out the account details), or the letter confirming you will receive EMA/ a bursary for the current academic year.

Remember, we must receive your application four weeks before the start date of your course. You need to send us:

1. A completed booking form
2. A cheque for the discounted course fee
3. Evidence that you receive EMA/ a bursary

Please show this information to your referee when you ask them to write your reference.
