Finance

We have several financial incentives to support students at Durham university. Students from low-income households will be assessed for the Durham Grant Scheme, which can be up to £2,500 per year for the 2023/24 academic year. Students from low-income households can also apply for the Student Employability Fund which provides financial support for developing skills and attributes to boost employability. We also offer a Hardship Fund, in line with our Stand Alone Pledge, to help students with buying essentials like food or travel.  

We also offer a dedicated point of contact in our Student Money Advice team. This is a service which can offer advice and support with budgeting, money management, government benefits, debt issues, banking and general financial concerns. The service can be accessed by contacting: studentmoneyadviser@durham.ac.uk
