Course Fees for UK and EU citizens

If you are a learner following a full-time further education course at Coleg Menai, you do not have to pay fees for any learning activity. Full-time higher education learners are liable to pay a fee. There are grants and loans available to cover this cost - please contact your Local Education Authority or call at Learner Services for further information.

Coleg Menai also has a range of part-time further and higher education courses, most of which carry a fee, though there is funding available for certain categories of learners. If you are on benefits and have a registration or examination fee to pay, you can apply to the Learner Assistance Fund for help.

If you are going to University in September you can apply now for Student Finance Wales support.
