To get Fees Free, you must meet the residency requirements on the day you complete your qualification or programme. You also need to meet the other eligibility requirements.
If you do not meet any of the residency requirements, you can still study or do work-based learning but you cannot get Fees Free. You may want to check again when you complete your qualification or programme, in case your situation changes.
