I am responding to this question on behalf of the Minister for Further and Higher Education as part of a ministerial cover arrangement.
Senedd Research provides publications annually about further and higher student support: Student funding guides for the 2025-26 academic year. As you will appreciate each support route will have different maximum amounts which is subject to individual circumstances, household income (where applicable) and meeting all eligibility criteria.
