Hi
OAT dont provide funding for you, i wish they did lol.
They will assist you in getting the HSBC loan. They will provide a business plan and you basically fill it in, they will also check it over and make sure all is well before it goes to HSBC.
Basically they do everything possible to help you secure the loan.
Want any more help just PM, im also starting at Oxford in the summer.
Best of luck

P.S, the schemes with excel and thomas cook run through OAT did not cover the entire cost of the course, it was basically a guarented job before they started, which made the loan process alot easier. Also the course price was reduced basically becuase the airline could clame back the VAT from the training. Thats all i know if anyone know more please add it Cheers!!
