New student applications

Once a student has completed a WGLG FE application form and returned this along with their original evidence, we’ll assess their application. We’ll contact the student if any information or evidence is missing.

There are 2 stages to determining whether a student is eligible for WGLG FE and what amount they're entitled to.

Personal eligibility is based on the personal and financial information the student has given on the application form. This determines whether the student is eligible to receive WGLG FE support. It also determines their entitlement band. If the student is eligible, we’ll send them a Provisional Award Letter to confirm this.

Course eligibility is something you'll need to confirm. We need this information before we can issue a Final Award Letter to the student. It includes the course details, progression and number of contact hours. This will ultimately determine if the student is entitled to a part-time or full-time amount of support.
