Hardship Fund

The University provides a Hardship Fund to support students to cover essential costs that could not be planned for. Hardship Funds are one of the ways in which we support our students along with our Bangor Bursaries, short term loans and crisis grants.

To make sure we distribute the funds fairly, we require students to complete an application process that assess your individual circumstances in the form of a means test. We can help you to complete the form as well as provide short term loans or crisis grants whilst the application is being processes if that is needed.

How to apply

The fund is available to registered Â鶹´«Ã½¸ßÇå°æ students – undergraduate or postgraduates whether you are from the UK or an International student studying full or part-time courses.

Students may apply at any time during the academic year by contacting:
