Postgraduate Funding Options
We have a collection of postgraduate funding options available
With a variety of funding options available to help with fees and living expenses, finding the funding for postgraduate study may not be as hard as you think.
For postgraduate students wanting to study at the University of Chichester, we have the following funding options:
Postgraduate Loan
Master's Loans
Postgraduate Doctoral Loans

We also offer a 15% discount for anyone who has previously studied an undergraduate course with us and is progressing to a master's level course (excluding PGCE programmes).
Postgraduate Loan

The loan amount changes annually and is subject to change by the government.

One and two year full-time courses are eligible for support. Part-time courses are also eligible, and are subject to a minimum 50% intensity requirement. Note that where the student is studying a two year full-time course on a part-time basis, all payments will be made over the first two years of study.
Eligible courses may be taught or research based, and include professional Master’s courses such as MBAs. There are no subject restrictions.
Master’s courses that are currently funded by the undergraduate support system, such as integrated Master’s, will not be eligible for PGL. Neither will other postgraduate qualifications that do not result in a Master’s qualification, such as a Postgraduate Diploma.
Master’s Loans
Postgraduate loans are available from the government to help fund a master’s degree.
The loan available for 2024/25 is up to £12,471 which could be used to pay course fees and living costs.
It is not based on your or your family’s income, and it’s paid directly to you. You can also get extra support if you have a disability. Whether you qualify depends on your course, age and nationality or residency status.

You could get a postgraduate doctoral loan of up to £28,673 if your course started between 1 August 2023 and 31 July 2024, or £29,390 if it starts on or after 1 August 2024.
