Bursary

From September 2026, the College bursary will cover cost for your method of travel, provided you fall under the household income threshold of £33,000. This applies to all campuses and includes: train travel, bus travel and mileage costs.

For example, if you are aged under 19, live in the Chantry area of Ipswich and attend the Ipswich campus for 3 days per week, travelling by bus, and your eligible household income is below £33,000, you will receive a monthly payment to cover the cost of a monthly bus pass, which can be purchased directly from the bus company.

Travelling by motorcycle or car is acceptable too.  We calculate your mileage from your home to college and pay this at 20p per mile, multiplied by the number of days that you are timetabled to be in college.  If you are travelling to Ipswich, we will pay your car parking too.

Unless you are travelling on one of the three dedicated bus routes or the complimentary shuttle bus to Suffolk Rural, then you will need to make your own arrangements of how you get to college. The College will contribute if your eligible household income is less than £33,000 and you apply for the bursary.
