We will aim to assess your application within three to four weeks. Applications will be assessed in the time and date received. We cannot fast-track any assessments.
Go to our application page to make your application to the funds. You will find more information on the application process alongside links to apply for the various funds.
Disagree with a decision?
Applicants who disagree with the outcome of their application are required to meet with a Money Adviser before making any formal request for reconsideration of the decision. In most cases, a conversation like this will allow applicants to present information not included in the original application, which could make a difference.
Applicants will be required to bring with them a completed Spending Review document which will be used as the basis for discussion with the Money Adviser.
Appointments to speak with one of our Money Advisers can be made via the Student Services Hub.
If, after speaking with a Money Adviser, an applicant still wishes to formally query their award, their reasons for disagreeing with the decision should be submitted in writing to the Deputy Head of Student Support Services within 28 days of notification of the award outcome being made. Such correspondence can be submitted via ask@stir.ac.uk where it will be forwarded appropriately.
