Find out more about how to apply for your student loan, plus other important financial considerations
Think about the costs of studying abroad before you apply. It is usually more expensive than being at Leeds, but costs can vary widely and will differ depending on your personal lifestyle and the cost of living in your host country.
Some study abroad students may be able to apply for a scholarship to help meet the costs of studying overseas.
If you will be on a work or study abroad placement in a European country anytime throughout the 2020-21 or 2021-22 academic year, you may be eligible for an Erasmus+ grant to supplement your student loan. There will not be Erasmus+ funding for students studying or working in Europe from 2022-23 onwards.
You can apply for both a Maintenance Loan to help pay for living costs while studying abroad or on a work placement and a loan for the Tuition Fee.
If you're a UK or EU student and your course includes a placement year - studying abroad or working, either abroad or in the UK - your funding will change for the year.
We know that your preparations for your Erasmus+ study or work placement have been difficult and many of you continue to face uncertainty during your semester or year abroad.
