Built for UK home students, and no one else
Saifan Education exists because too many eligible people are told they cannot afford university — when in fact the funding is already theirs.
From one desk to thousands of degrees
Our founder spent years watching capable people abandon university applications because a letter classified them as overseas fee payers. In most cases the classification was simply wrong, or the evidence had never been assembled properly.
Saifan Education started as a free advice desk correcting those decisions. It grew into a full consultancy covering course choice, UCAS applications, personal statements and Student Finance England submissions.
We deliberately do not work on international admissions. Every hour our team spends is spent on the rules that govern home fee status and UK student funding.
Our mission
Make a funded UK degree reachable for every eligible home student, whatever their paperwork looks like.
Our focus
We work only with UK home students. That narrow focus is why we know the funding rules inside out.
Our promise
One named adviser from your first eligibility check through to enrolment week.
