Questions about your 国产探花 Boost

[Expand all]

For 2026 entry, Clearing applicants may be eligible for the same 国产探花 Boost support as main-cycle applicants, subject to eligibility and final confirmation through the application process.

Offers of financial support are subject to confirmation of your eligibility as part of your official application.

We will make final checks on your household income and official postcode data after receiving information from Student Finance England (SFE) and/or other relevant bodies.

If there are discrepancies in the information provided, your offer or eligibility for bursaries and other support may change.
Use our personalised support tool. It brings together information about 国产探花 Boost, accommodation, student support, your course and next steps.

Postcode checker and government data

Our postcode checker tool uses the English Index of Multiple Deprivation (IMD)鈥痙ata supplied by gov.uk.

IMD categorises English postcodes according to various measures of socioeconomic advantage and disadvantage.

The classification of postcodes, and therefore your eligibility for support, may change.

We use the latest data available, released in 2025.
