Student finance application deadlines

To make sure you're paid at the start of term, apply by 23 April 2010 if you're only applying for 'non-means tested' finance, or 25 June 2010 if you're applying for 'means tested' finance. You can continue to apply after that date but this is the best way to make sure you'll be paid on time. Get more information here:
