Aspire – an easier and faster way to pay students

We pay out financial support including bursaries, scholarships, expenses and other payments to students via CCCU Aspire.

For students who are issued a cash award, paying funds into their bank account couldn’t be easier. Students will receive an email from student.info@CCCU-Aspire.co.uk advising them of the funding made to them with full instructions on how to access these funds. The student can then pay their funds into their bank account of choice and the funds usually transfer instantly but could take up to 2 hours.

Plus, free financial support resources

In addition to making payments easier Aspire offers many free resources designed to empower and support students during their studies, including free live events, student blogs, wellbeing resources and an online store.

Students can access Aspire using the same login details as their university accounts and students will receive an email from student.info@CCCU-Aspire.co.uk advising when their account has been set up.

Cost of Living

The current cost of living crisis is affecting everyone, and in partnership with the Students' Union, we want to work together to support each other during this time. Check out our Cost of Living Hub for access to financial advice and support, tips on how to save and make money at the University and a host of free ways to come together as a community.
