SAAS funding applications now open
The Student Awards Agency Scotland (SAAS) is now open for funding applications for the 2025/26 academic year for new and continuing students. Apply now to secure your funding!
You must apply and submit your evidence before 30 June to ensure you receive your funding on time. Applying early gives enough time to gather any supporting evidence and guarantees that all eligible students will have their funding in place for the start of their course.
Don't forget to read the step-by-step funding guide, which provides information on what to do before, during and after applying.
You'll usually hear back from SAAS within four weeks. To avoid delays to your funding, make sure you complete your application correctly and send all appropriate supporting evidence immediately.
