Home / EU Students - UK
At Hope Study Link, we take pride in helping students from across the UK and the EU unlock academic opportunities through flexible, government-funded education pathways. Whether you are a working professional with over five years of UK employment history or an EU national residing in the UK, you may be eligible to enter higher education without traditional academic qualifications—thanks to work-based entry schemes supported by Student Finance England (SFE).
Why Choose Us?
- Work Experience-Based University Admission
If you’ve been working in the UK for five years or more, you may be eligible to apply to your preferred UK university without formal academic qualifications, using your employment history and life experience as evidence of prior learning.
- Fully Government-Funded Education

Up to £9,535 per academic year, fully covered by SFE, paid directly to your university.
Maintenance Loan (Living Costs):
