Education maintenance award
The EMA scheme is closed to new applicants
Applications are no longer being accepted for EMA in
England.
If you are struggling with the costs of learning speak to
student services at your school, college or training provider about
financial support you may be able to get.
If your application was assessed and you have a Notice of
Entitlement stating that you are eligible to receive EMA in the
2010/11 academic year, you should take this into your school,
college or training provider so that you can start to receive
payments.
If you have any questions about the closure of EMA you can
contact the Learner Support helpline on 0800 121 8989.
