  • advice on how they can pay for part time studies
  • information on trust funds
  • helping them meet the costs of childcare
  • giving money management advice and guidance
  • providing guidance should they need to mitigate or appeal
  • helping them apply for repeat year funding if things don't go to plan
  • providing financial support if things get tough
  • discussing funding implications of withdrawals or failures
