As an ESOL student, can I get travel expenses?

Answer

Part-time and English for Speakers of Other Languages (ESOL) students can access support from the Discretionary Fund to help with their expenses for travelling to College.  

For part-time and ESOL students you must: 

  • Meet residency requirements.  

  • Get benefits e.g. Universal Credit.  

  • Live more than 2 miles from college.  

  • Be studying a course that is eligible for funding (has a qualification). 

You will need to provide the following with your application: 

  • Bank statement. 

How to apply: Complete the application form, if you're studying ESOL or a part-time course. You need to be logged into your College account to access the form. It can take up to 4 weeks for an application to be approved. 

If you need help, please contact studentadvisors@cityofglasgowcollege.ac.uk or drop-in to see us in Student Services on level 2, City Campus.
