If you're eligible, you can apply for CCA once your main postgraduate application has been completed.
Download a CCA application form from our website. You must complete sections 2 and 3 for each childcare provider you use. Do not include any costs covered by free early years education provisions.
Your childcare provider must sign the form to verify your childcare costs.
Upload the completed CCA application form to your MyFunding account.
We'll process your application within 20 working days of receiving it.
You must reapply for the allowance every academic year. If your estimated costs or childcare provider changes during an academic year, you must submit a new CCA application form.
