Financial Support

Student Bursary Fund

The College has Student Bursary Funds. These are available to help students who might be experiencing difficulty with meeting the costs of their learning.  Eligibility is based on an assessment of household income and assistance is available towards the cost of travel (during term time), books, equipment, meals and essential study visits.  For more information call Karen Robinson on 01709 300600, email trcinfo@trc.ac.uk or ask at Student Services reception.

Transport

There are special rates for students when it comes to travel; information about discounted bus passes is available from Student Services, Travelsouthyorkshire.com or your local (main) interchange.

Support for trips and visits

We recommend that you find out in advance the cost of any important trips and visits that are either compulsory or strongly recommended for your courses.  If you have difficulty meeting these costs, help may be available from the Student Bursary Fund.  For more information call Karen Robinson on 01709 300600, email trcinfo@trc.ac.uk or ask at Student Services reception.
