We’ve created a toolkit to help you get your students ready to apply for student finance. You’ll be able to embed the toolkit's content on your own channels.

The toolkit is available to download now from the ‘Resources’ section of the SFW Practitioners site. The toolkit contains:
•           our ‘Student finance explained’ film

•           a button which directs students to our mailing list

Remember to sign up for an update for when applications open!
You should encourage students to sign up for an alert when our full‐time undergraduate applications open! They can do this at the Student Finance Wales website.
