This has all the markings of a scam. Any time an entity requires money up front for a program that seems to good to be true, I would avoid them. You can read the standard financial aid scam warnings here: http://ftc.gov/bcp/conline/edcams/scholarship/index.html
And, if you get the full name of the company, you can look them up on the Better Business Bureau website, here: www.bbb.org

Sounds like a scam.
If you get a loan, you only have to start paying it back once you've finished your course and earning a certain amount.
I have never heard of this "trust" before - Anything that wants money upfront doesn't sound right

it is a scam.
any decent scheme will not request 10% in advance, if you must take it further ask for the names of students who they've raised money for and also ask trading standards if they are aware of them
