Student support for higher education students in the 2023/24 academic year
Summary
Jeremy Miles MS, Minister for Education and Welsh Language
During a cost of living crisis, it is more important than ever that every measure is taken to ensure that everyone, no matter their background, can access higher education.
In 2018, the Welsh Government introduced a progressive and equitable student support system that is unique in Europe for financing full and part time undergraduates and postgraduates. This system is based on supporting students with the cost of living while they study.
