The Student Awards Agency Scotland (SAAS) is open for business now ahead of the new student year – calling for all students to complete and submit applications for the next academic year (2015-2016) to ensure their needs for funding, including tuition fees, are met.

Staff are politely asked to remind students that the deadline to send an application for funding to SAAS is 30 June 2015.

SAAS is responsible for giving financial support to over 160,000 Scottish students studying in higher education throughout the UK.

Students must visit www.saas.gov.uk and complete their online application or call the helpline on 0300 555 0505 if they have any questions or are having difficulties filling out their form.
