Are grants better for Cardiff residents than loans?

Grants are better for some applicants than loans, but there is no universal hierarchy in Cardiff or elsewhere of grants and loans. Each offer has its own eligibility requirements and intended uses. So, by paying attention to these details you can find out what funding choices may work for you and which ones to drop from your list. Look at the interest rates, terms and repayment schedules for loan offers that you find as well.
