Will I have to pay fees?
Learning Programmes at Level 3 and Below
School Leavers under the age of 19 do not have to pay fees on any full time courses, though may have to pay for their second year if turning 19 during their studies.
If you’re aged 19 or over you might qualify for an Advanced Learner Loan. It’s easy to apply for and you won’t have to pay anything back until you’re earning over £27,295. Find more information on Advanced Learner Loans on our website.
If you are studying a part-time course and you receive one of the following benefits, or you depend financially on someone who does, you may be entitled to have your tuition fees waived:
- Job Seeker's Allowance
- Income Support
You will, however, have to pay any awarding body/assessment fees (unless you are on a first full level 2 course).
Higher Education Courses at Level 4 and Above
The fee payable for your course is displayed in the table above and can be paid for in a number of ways:
- HE Loan
- Instalment Payment Plan
- Payment in full
* If you are in receipt of Working Tax Credit or receive other allowances, you may be eligible to claim concessionary rates. If you are entitled to a fee concession you will be asked to provide proof of your entitlement.
It is essential that you inform us if your entitlement changes at any time during your course.

In partnership with The Solent Civil Engineering Employers’
Group, we are proud to be offering a new Apprenticeship programme designed to
prepare people for a long-term career in construction. This opportunity is
unique and unlike other Apprenticeship vacancies, in that the training you
receive is front loaded into the first 20 weeks of the course where you receive
practical training and support in a custom-built training facility. Here you
will get experience at doing the tasks and duties you will be doing on site and
using the tools and plant; there is no such thing as indoor Groundworks and the
training you receive on this programme ensures that you are “site ready” on your
first day on site after your 20-week training programme with both your CSCS card
and your CPCS card. Once you are on site you will be working in a close-knit
team of people completing the following tasks: • Construction of roads
and sewers • Building housing and commercial
foundations • Installation of utilities • Hard landscaping, i.e.
patios etc. • Understanding types of ground and
materials • Water management • Domestic
drainage • Understanding of technical drawings • Understanding
of and maintaining high levels of health and safety at all

to a long and promising career within Construction with many development
opportunities available and enviable rates of pay once you are
qualified.
