    Are you on BTEA and looking for a fee only grant?

    It was so much easier to blame it on Them. It was bleakly depressing to think that They were Us. If it was Them, then nothing was anyone's fault. If it was us, what did that make Me? After all, I'm one of Us. I must be. I've certainly never thought of myself as one of Them. No one ever thinks of themselves as one of Them. We're always one of Us. It's Them that do the bad things.

    If you're only eligible for fees be it on income or BTEA there is no concession for students who live over 45k from the college. The distance is measured only if you are eligible for some portion of the grant - then they give you adjacent or non adjacent rate.
