Finance & Student Loans

Professional and Career Development Loans
Professional and Career Development Loans are bank loans to pay for courses and training that help with your career or help get you into work. A large number of The Media & film Academy short courses are eligible for this form of funding.

You may be able to borrow between £300 and £10,000.

Loans are usually offered at a reduced interest rate and the government pays interest while you’re studying. Click HERE to find out more.

You should apply 3 months before the course starts to give us, the bank and the SFA enough time to process your application.

Pay4Later Finance
The Media & film Academy has partnered up with Pay4Later to help you find a great finance offer from an expert panel of lenders.
Loans are available from £300 up to £10,000 at 9.9% APR.

Please note: as a private institution this loan does not cover the full tuition fee.

Full-time students have to pay back any loans plus interest once you complete the programme and start earning more than £21,000 a year.
