Finance and Higher Education...

For anyone in higher education, finance is a priority.  At whatever level you wish to study, you will need to plan your finances carefully both before you arrive and once your programme has commenced. The information contained on these pages is designed to ensure that you are aware of the wide range of financial support available to you, and where to go if you require further assistance.

The Student Advice Centre deals with a vast range of financial queries, including issues with funding, postgraduate income maximisation, student  banking, debt managment plans, instructing banks re overdrafts. and help with childcare costs, but this list is not exhaustive.

Whatever your issue is, you are more than welcome to approach the Student Advice Centre for assistance on 0191 2393979 or via email. We also operate an online Live chat service.

Newcastle University operates services which also provide assistance on financial issues such as Student Wellbeing and Student Finance.

If you are an international student, please visit Newcastle University's international student page for further financial information.
