Information for parents

We look forward to welcoming your son or daughter to Christ's College. If you have not already done so, you might find it helpful to look at the University webpages Student Fees and Finance.

You should be aware that in the case of UK/EU students who opt not to complete in any way the application form for student grants/loans, he or she becomes regarded as a fully self-funded student and may be liable to pay the College Fees of approximately £3,951 (otherwise paid for all students centrally), and the University Fees of £9,000 plus the estimated living costs of at least £7,500. However, if your son/daughter does not wish to take out a student loan, he/she must complete and return this form so that the College may be satisfied that he/she is an "eligible" student. In this case, it is not necessary to apply to Student Finance and the College Fees will be paid on his or her behalf.
