The Postgraduate Funding Working Group have responded on behalf of the Council to the Department for Education Consultation on Doctoral Loans.

It has been reassuring to see that in the consultation, Government have taken on board many of the factors that influenced the current Masters Loans Scheme. There are still changes we would wish the Government to make to the Doctoral Loans criteria and we have made recommendations as part of the consultation process. We hope that our response will play some part to ensure that the Doctoral Loans Scheme will allow postgraduate education to be accessible and affordable.
