和国内大学学费相比，英美国家的高等教育学费要高很多，因此即便在英国美国这样的发达国家，也有上不起大学的。当然，相应地，它们也有学生贷款。那么英国大学的贷款计划是怎样的呢?针对自己国家的贫困大学生，英国政府怎么安排?下面就和零零出国留学网来看看吧!

　　Non means-tested loans of up to a maximum of £10,000 are available to taught and research Master's students. For PhD-level students, a maximum of £25,000 will be available.

　　授课型硕士生和研究型硕士生可以享受高达1万英镑的免入息审查货款。博士生可以享受2.5万英镑贷款。

　　Postgraduate Loans

　　Postgraduate loans are available to UK Nationals (ordinarily resident in the UK and Islands), EU, EEA or Swiss nationals ordinarily resident in the EU, EEA or Switzerland.

　　Applicants are not eligible for PGL if they have outstanding student loan arrears or have previously been found to be ‘unfit’ for student support.

　　一、研究生贷款

　　研究生贷款面向英国公民(常住在英国和不列颠群岛)、欧盟成员国公民以及常住在欧盟成员国、欧洲经济区或瑞士的瑞士公民开放。欠款数额大或先前发现“不符合”学生支助的申请人，不能申请研究生贷款。

　　Course Eligibility

　　Non means-tested loans of up to £10,000 per course are made available to students applying to taught and research Master's courses. PhD students are funded through a separate scheme.

　　Loans are available to students under the age of 60 studying full-time, part-time (at least 50% of a full-time course) or on distance-learning courses.

　　Loans are available to students across all discipline areas.

　　课程资格

　　申请授课型硕士课程和研究型硕士课程的学生，每门课程可以申请高达1万英镑的免入息审查货款。博士生基金由单独的计划提供。

　　年龄在60岁以下且学习全日制、非全日制(至少上一半的全日制课程)和远程教育课程的学生，均可申请贷款。

　　所有学科学生都可以申请贷款。

　　The loan is considered to be a contribution towards the costs of postgraduate study and is not available if you already have a Master's qualification.

　　Postgraduate funding is considered a devolved matter for Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. Therefore loans are only available for students ordinarily resident in England.

　　贷款针对研究生学习费用，因此不适用于已持有硕士资格证书的学生。研究生基金是苏格兰、威尔士、北爱尔兰的下放问题，因此贷款只适用于常居在英格兰的学生。

　　Payment of Loan

　　Payments of PGL are made in three equal instalments per academic year: course start date, 4 months and 7 months after start date.

　　Payments are released following receipt of confirmation from the HE Provider that the student is in study and on track to complete the course within the specified course duration.

　　贷款支付

　　研究生贷款每个学年分三期支付：开课的时候、开课后的四个月、开课后的七个月。

　　贷款根据学生所在的高等教育机构开具的收据发放，供学生完成特定课程的学习。

　　Repayments

　　Repayments will be on an income-contingent basis commencing on 6th April 2019 with repayments taken via HMRC.

　　The UK repayment threshold will be £21,000 in tax year 2019/20. Those who are repaying from overseas will have a threshold applied which is based on the cost of living in their country of residence.

　　Postgraduate loan repayments will be paid concurrently with undergraduate loan repayments, at a rate of 6% of annual income over £21,000. Your undergraduate and postgraduate loans will be two separate loans.

　　Interest will be charged at RPI + 3%.

　　还款

　　还款以收入比例为基础，计划于2019年4月6日启动，届时，还款将通过英国税务及海关总署实施。

　　英国偿还起点在纳税年度2019-20为2.1万英镑。对于海外还款的学生，起点将以学生所在国家的生活成本为基础。

　　研究生贷款还款和本科生贷款还款同时进行，还款比例为年薪减去2.1万英镑之后余下部分的6%。研究生贷款和本科生贷款属于两个独立的贷款。

　　利息按零售物价指数加三个百分点收取。

　　PhD Loans

　　The final details of the PhD loan scheme have yet to be anounced, although the plan is for loans of up to £25,000 to be available without means-testing.

　　The government's proposal states that loans will be available to students who are:

　　English-resident UK nationals

　　Aged under 60

　　Studying at any UK university

　　Not already in receipt of any Research Council funding

　　Repayment terms will be in line with those for master's-level postgraduate loans - you will pay 6% of any earnings over £21,000.

　　二、博士贷款

　　博士贷款计划的最终详细信息有待公布。计划可贷高达2.5万英镑的免入息审查货款。

　　根据政府提议，符合以下条件的学生可以申请博士贷款：

　　英国国籍

　　在英国上大学的学生

　　年龄在60岁以下

　　尚未收到任何研究委员会基金

　　博士还款和硕士还款一样——按年薪减去2.1万英镑之后余下部分的6%还款。
