Are you thinking about joining Boolean, but paying for the course is a sticking point? We're pleased to offer you the opportunity to apply for our Future Earnings Agreement. This allows you to pay for the Boolean course after you graduate with a share of your future income. It's like a student loan, but better, since there's no interest on your loan. Instead, you either pay until you reach the maximum cap, or the maximum number of repayments.

Invest in your future today.

Start repaying when you get a job

Apart from the deposit to secure your place, you’ll only begin repayments after you finish the course and only once you're earning over a minimum salary.

Zero interest for a fairer loan

Future Earnings Agreements are more affordable than traditional loan products because you don't pay any interest.

Repayments are capped

You’ll never repay more than the maximum cap.

A fixed number of repayments

Repayments are linked to how much you earn. So you’ll either make the maximum number of repayments, or you’ll reach the maximum cap before then.

What are the requirements for the Future Earnings Agreement?

  • Over 18 years old
  • Pass the Boolean Admissions process
  • Pass the Future Earnings Agreement Financial checks

FAQs

What is a Future Earnings Agreement?

The Future Earnings Agreement is an option available to Boolean students to pay for the course. It's similar to a normal student loan, as you borrow money to pay tuition fees, with the intention of paying it back later once you begin earning a salary.

Is the Future Earnings Agreement like a typical student loan?

It's similar, but there are several key differences that make it a better option. Firstly, you won’t pay interest on the amount borrowed, so you won’t be chasing an ever-increasing figure that keeps rising with interest. Instead, the amount you repay is linked to the amount you earn, so the less you earn, the less you pay back, and vice versa if you earn more. Secondly, you only start making repayments once you pass the minimum earnings threshold. Finally, your repayment is capped and you'll never pay more than the maximum cap. Or, if you don't reach the maximum cap, you'll never make more than the maximum number of monthly repayments.

Who can take out a Future Earnings Agreement?

Anyone applying for Boolean courses currently living in one of the countries listed above can apply for the Future Earnings Agreement. This is subject to passing the entry requirements for Boolean, as well as financial checks for the agreement.

How much will I need to pay?

The amount you need to pay depends which course you are applying for. Check the individual course page or ask our Admissions team during your Admissions interview for full details.

Who is your financial provider?

Future Earnings Agreements are provided by our partner StepEx. They are fully regulated and approved by the Financial Conduct Authority (frn 824928).

What happens if I lose my job?

Your repayments will pause - with no interest - until you start a new job earning over the minimum income threshold.

Will I have to keep repaying the loan forever?

Not at all! You'll either make the maximum number of monthly repayments and then stop paying, or you'll reach the maximum cap sooner than that, in which case you'll stop paying anyway. If you haven't met either criteria made within six years, the remaining balance of your Future Earnings Agreement is cleared.
