Essentials Postcode Checker

Postcode Checker

Enter your home postcode to check your Eligibility for financial support

Check your eligibility for financial support

Students must have a permanent home postcode (not term-time only) that indicates that they live in an area of low participation in higher education or an area of general disadvantage (the University defines this as postcodes falling within the latest IMD or POLAR4 or TUNDRA quintiles 1 or 2).

Enter your home postcode to identify if you live in an area we prioritise for our student financial support bursaries based on your home location.  You will also need to meet all the eligibility criteria for our student financial support bursaries.

Further funding opportunities can be found on Essentials | Money Matters and Blackbullion | Funding Hub.

Check your postcode

Please wait while we validating your postcode...

Our postcode checker is based on TUNDRA and POLAR4 data from the Office for Students and IMD Data from Gov.uk.

If you have any queries about your eligibility please email studentfunding@reading.ac.uk.
