Education is an important investment – in yourself and in your future – and we believe it’s an investment that should be accessible to all. Our online degrees offer a cost-effective route to accomplishing your educational objectives, as opposed to traditional on-campus studies. Demonstrating our dedication to inclusivity, we provide financial assistance such as scholarships, a Hardship Fund, and flexible payment choices.
As an LIBF student, you’ll have the opportunity to apply for an LIBF Scholarship if your net household income is less than £3,500 a month. The LIBF Scholarship is an award of £1,200 towards your tuition fees, spread over the duration of your course and reducing your total fees. The LIBF Scholarship isn’t available to undergraduate students funding their course with a student loan.
We also offer a Hardship Fund for UK undergraduate students to make education more affordable and accessible. It is intended to alleviate financial pressures, allowing you to concentrate on your studies. UK undergraduate students can apply for support from The Hardship Fund twice during the academic year. Current undergraduate students will receive notification when the application period opens.
You will also receive a free iPad to aid your studies.
For UK students, the total fees for our online courses will remain the same whether you opt for full-time or part-time study.
