If you need to learn a language to support your studies, you can ask
your college (if you are an undergraduate) or your department / faculty
(if you are a postgraduate) to sponsor you via our Priority Funding
scheme. This means that you do not pay for the course yourself and that
your application will take priority over other learners. Examples of a
Priority Funding application would be students needing to read texts in
the target language, to undertake fieldwork or to take an internship in
a country where this language is spoken.
The application process has two parts:
- Complete our Priority Funding
Application Form. You will need the name and email address of
your tutor/supervisor. We recommend you discuss your need for the
course with your tutor/supervisor before completing the form. If your
tutor/supervisor supports your application, this will be forwarded to
the relevant financial signatory at your college/department.
- Once both have approved your request you will be booked onto the
course by a member of our admin team and you will then receive an
automated confirmation email. Please do not enrol
yourself onto the course.
For term-time courses, you may apply term by term or for the whole
year. If you apply for more than one term, you will not need to re-enrol
in the subsequent terms; we will do this for you automatically and
charge your college or department/faculty. Please note that to apply for
two different courses or languages under this scheme you will need to
fill in two separate application forms.
The Priority Funding form for Trinity term courses will be
available from Wednesday 8 April until 12:00 NOON on Wednesday 29
April.
Please note that Priority funding is not available for Fast Track
courses, for more information on other types of funding for Fast Track
courses, please visit the Fast Track
pathway information page.
