SCOTTISH students studying in mainland Europe will be eligible for a full package of financial support for the first time under a £750,000 pilot scheme.
Under the initiative, the Scottish Government will offer 250 students bursary payments of up to £1750 and a student loan of up to £5500.
Students who currently study full-time abroad are only eligible for help with their tuition fees provided by the EU country where they are based.
