Scottish Unversities £310 "gift"

In your NotW article yesterday and in your student guide here you said that if a student is on the maximum Maintenance Grant (my daughter is, and is about to start her first term) and the full fees were £3,145 the University was bound to give the student a non-returnable £310.
Scottish University tuition fees are only £1,775.00. Does this make my daughter ineligible to claim the £310?

Comments

  • Is your daughter receiving help from SAAS? If so then she won't be eligible for the bursary. If not then she will be. Here is a link to it from my university.
  • Thank you, the one who, for your reply. No she is not receiving help from SAAS, we live in England (albeit that she is half-Scots!). We will next Monday at St A's do as you suggest. Most helpful.
