You can see a copy of the extenuating circumstances form that has been sent to your UCAS referee here. Your school should contact us before grades are released.

The financial need of all students is assessed through a range of information, including household income details provided for means-tested government support. You do not need to make a separate application for a College bursary.

Lincoln offers relocation grants (of up to £500) to eligible students once they have met the conditions of their offer and have had their places at Lincoln confirmed (this happens in the summer of the year of entry). Eligibility is determined using information from your UCAS form and the information you will provide on your college registration forms. The College also has a laptop loan scheme, allowing students to borrow a fully-supported laptop for the duration of their degree.

If you encounter unexpected financial difficulty during your time at Lincoln, the College can make grants from its Student Support Fund.

More information about the financial support offered by Lincoln can be found here.

International students, including EU students who do have settled or pre-settled status, need to apply for a visa to study in the UK.
