This section will help you think about you and your personal circumstances and the things you need to prepare and arrange before you start your course.

Work through each section to see if it’s relevant to you:

• RESIDENCY – Check if you qualify for course fee reduction, this depends on whether you normally live in the European Union or not.
• MONEY - Can you afford the course? Is there a reduced rate or are any grants available?
• FAMILY – If you have children, who’s going to look after your children when you are at College? Can you afford childcare?
• DISABILITY/MENTAL HEALTH – What support you will need to access your course?
• STUDY SUPPORT – Will you need extra help with maths, English or homework?
• PERSONAL ISSUES – Are there any other personal issues that may effect you whilst studying?

CHECK: You should now know what you need to arrange to allow you to start your course.
