Bursaries and Financial Support

We understand that you may be concerned about whether you can afford for your son or daughter to come to College, which is why we have put in place two bursary schemes which can provide financial support. Please contact us as soon as possible on 024 7624 3000 or email the.college@nwhc.ac.uk to find out if you are eligible.

Help with Transport

We know that getting your son or daughter to College can sometimes be difficult if you need to use public transport. To help make life easier, from September students will be able to collect bus passes for Arriva and Stagecoach Services from College. Payments can be made by direct debit in three instalments prior to collecting the pass. We are also providing some dedicated College transport for areas where commercial services don’t meet the needs of our students, for example transport between our Nuneaton and Hinckley campuses, and our new Construction Centre at Harrowbrook.
