<p>There are currently specific provisions in the rules that provide access to student
support for persons who hold settled status in the UK, and who have left England to
exercise a right of residence elsewhere in the Economic European Area (EEA) or Switzerland.</p><p>
</p><p>We have agreed with the EU that equal treatment principles will continue to
apply for those covered by the Withdrawal Agreement. This means that UK nationals
resident in the EU (and EU nationals resident in the UK) before the end of the implementation
period on 31 December 2020 will be eligible for support on a similar basis to domestic
students in the relevant member state. It will be for member states to decide how
they will implement the citizens’ rights deal in accordance with the Withdrawal Agreement.</p><p>
</p><p>Entitlement to student finance, including tuition fee loans and home fees status
after 31 December 2020 for those outside the scope of the Withdrawal Agreement, is
under consideration.</p><p> </p>
