DMU Support Fund

The DMU Support Fund is now open

IMPORTANT: please check if you are eligible to apply and ensure that you watch all of the applicable evidence videos before you submit an application. We will direct you back to the evidence videos if your supporting evidence is incomplete.

The DMU Support Fund is designed to assist with general living and course-related costs. It cannot be used for delays with your student funding or to pay tuition fees, support 'lifestyle choices', or as a replacement for statutory benefits. If you are in financial crisis, please book a 'Quick Query' appointment to discuss your situation with us, as applications take time to assess.

The Fund relies on money provided by the University to help students who are facing genuine and unavoidable financial hardship. It will be reviewed at the end of each term, which may impact the way we assess future applications. This is to enable us to try and maintain sufficient funds throughout the academic year. Closing date for 2024/25 applications: Friday 13th June 2025 (we may have to close the Fund prior to this date if the funds run out).
