In order that your eligibility to the Bolton 2013 Scholarship may be assessed you must apply to Student Finance England for funding for your course of study as soon as possible and both you and your sponsor(s) must give consent for the Student Loans Company to share information with the university. This is so that once your funding application has been financially assessed your household income details can be shared with the university.

Please note that even if you expect to receive the Bolton 2013 Scholarship you should still apply to Student Finance England for the full tuition fee for your course of study (if you are applying for a tuition fee loan), and any adjustment to your tuition fee figure will need to be made once your household income has been assessed and eligibility for fee waiver determined.
