??? I am hoping to go to uni next september but keep getting conflicting advice as to what is classed as income when student fees are worked out. my husband works and earns just under 20,000 but with 4 kids we get benefits of family tax credit, housing benefit and housing benefit. firstly i want to know if these are all taken into account as income when applying for a loan/fees to be paid, and secondary is any loan you get taken into account when applying for these benefits? I have asked at college and uni etc and always get differing answers.

Try this, its the student finance direct page with all types of info, hope the link works, not done one before! if not just search "student finance direct" and you should get it

My observation makes more sense if you read the date on the first post in this thread.
I answered the post because it had remained unanswered for almost a year.
