Extend student finance to non-UK citizens habitually resident in the UK
There are many non-UK citizens living and working in the UK who would like to further their education but are hindered by a lack of access to student finance.
We want the Government to extend eligibility for student finance to non-UK citizens who are habitually resident in the UK.
Many non-UK citizens have rights to live, work and even claim benefits, but most cannot access student finance to pursue higher education.
Extending student finance to this group would help promote higher education and make it easier for non-UK citizens living in the UK to pursue further education, including courses supporting professions where the UK has skills shortages.
