Travel Pass Scheme
|  |
As you may already be aware, all full-time learners who live more than 3 miles from College are eligible for the Exeter College Travel Pass Scheme. The scheme provides subsidised travel passes for buses and/or trains, regardless of household income. We can provide further support with the cost of travel for households with an income of below £50k per year, and for any learners with a household income of £30k or below, their travel to College will be free of charge. For detailed information on the varied levels of financial support that are available, please click on the link below.

Bursary |
 |
In addition to the Travel Scheme, we offer a student Bursary Scheme to help ensure that financial constraints don’t present a barrier to accessing an outstanding education. The bursary is currently available to students whose household income is below £30k per year, and can help with the cost of travel, free meals, academy fees, essential books, and specialist clothing amongst other things. Bursary applications are now open. For the most up to date information, please click the below link.

Please note, travel and bursary information is based on the 2024/2025 academic year so is subject to change for the 2025/2026 academic year.
