Financial Support for Applicant Days

The University encourages all prospective students to visit our campus to see our facilities and academic teaching, however we recognise that the financial cost of visiting universities can be a concern. 

We would therefore like to offer support with the travel costs of up to £50, associated with visiting the University of Suffolk, for those who travel a significant distance (a round trip of at least 150 miles) to attend an Applicant Day.

Students must pay for travel costs upfront and then submit a travel expenses form with proof of costs (e.g. relevant receipts/booking confirmations. Mileage will be paid at the rate of 45p per mile. Either a mileage claim, or receipts from an alternative mode of transport is accepted, of up to £50 against travel costs.

If you feel you are eligible, please complete both forms below and send any receipts to financialsupport_travelclaims@uos.ac.uk

Please note, if you are claiming for train or taxi travel and do not provide receipts, then payment will not be made.

Any expenses forms must be submitted within 28 days of the visit.

Payments will normally be made directly to the applicant's bank account within four weeks of submission. If you have any further questions, feel free to email us on financialsupport_travelclaims@uos.ac.uk.
