The Fund is available to provide discretionary financial help for undergraduate, postgraduate and Research, overseas and EU students, not in receipt of a maintenance loan, who have experienced unexpected financial hardship due to unforeseen circumstances. The IHF is intended as a safety net for students in financial difficulty, not their main source of support.
