Information for providers on the crisis in Ukraine

We have distributed £4 million to support Ukrainian students studying at English higher education providers.

Funds have been distributed to providers pro-rata based on the number of Ukrainian students registered.

All Approved (fee cap) category providers with at least one Ukrainian student registered in the 2021–22 academic year were eligible to receive funding.

What the funding is for

The government has made this funding available to help Ukrainian nationals and Ukrainian-domiciled students who have been financially affected by the events in Ukraine.

Providers must distribute their allocation of the funding to Ukrainian students who are facing hardship, and all funding must be used by providers by the end of the 2022–23 financial year.

We will run a monitoring exercise at the end of the 2022–23 financial year to confirm providers have distributed this funding to eligible students in compliance with the terms and conditions.

Providers that anticipate they cannot use the funding allocated to them should notify us as soon as possible so that it can be redistributed.

Full details of eligibility, the allocation process and terms and conditions placed on use of the funding were set out in our letter to providers on 28 April 2022.

A letter announcing the distribution of funding was sent to providers on 9 June 2022.
