Financial Support

If you’re a UK student, we have a range of financial support that you can combine with your student loan to support you through your time at Oxford Brookes. If you’re from a lower income household, you could be eligible for the Oxford Brookes Bursary, worth up to £3,000 per year.

If you are an international student, you could be eligible for a scholarship worth £2,000 towards your tuition fees if you accept your offer and pay your deposit by 15 April 2024. Find out more about the scholarships we have in place for international students below.

Our firm offer commitment

Choose Oxford Brookes as your firm choice on UCAS, and we will confirm your place this summer, even if you miss your offer by one grade.*

There are a small number of exceptions where we are not able to apply this due to strict capacities on the number of places or existing flexibility already built into our offers. These are:

  • Offers for Midwifery, Physiotherapy and our Engineering degrees
  • Offers for foundation year programmes
  • Contextual offers
  • Programmes delivered by our partner colleges
  • Apprenticeships.

The University recognises a wide range of international qualifications, however, it is not possible to apply a standard approach to flexibility across all international qualifications. Please visit our website or contact our Admissions team for more information about international requirements.

*This is applied as a reduction equivalent to one A level grade (8 UCAS tariff points).
