Academic year 2020/21: Help your students get prepared!

Exchange editorial team

Providing up-to-date information about our student finance products and services.

This post first published: 18 December 2019

It’s not long now till student finance applications launch, and it’s essential that new students know how and when to apply.

 

We’ve created a handy toolkit for you to use which will help you answer student’s questions and share content on your own channels.

 

The toolkit contains:

 

  • 3 films
  • key messages for social media 
  • a link to our quick start guide 
  • a button which links to our 'Get ready' Gov.UK page

 

What else is new?

 

This year, we've taken a different approach in designing our resources to ensure we keep our students’ needs at the heart of everything we do. That's why we've decided to no longer produce our printed quick guides and instead are encouraging everyone to use our interactive online Quick Start Finance Guide.

 

This online guide contains all the same information that's found in the printed guides but comes with many added benefits for our students, and for universities and colleges too.

 

The online guide:

 

  • is frequently updated to make sure information is always accurate
  • better suits our customers as it offers information and guidance online where they can access it 24/7
  • can be embedded on your website so you don't need to worry about making sure your information is up to date - we'll update the guide regularly
  • is more environmentally friendly as it reduces the amount of paper we use

 

Embed the guide on your site and encourage students to visit the Quick Start Finance Guide
