Under the student grant scheme, eligible candidates may receive funding provided they are attending an approved course at an approved institution. The definition of an approved institution is set out in Section 7 of the Student Support Act 2011 and Regulation 3 of the Student Support Regulations 2017.

The college to which the Deputy refers, is not an approved institution, for student grant purposes.
