    Roxlana,
    thank you.

    working isnt an issue for my daughter (she has been working part time for months already).

    is the first year the worst for getting finance (apart from the obvious learning to budget), ie is the 2nd/3rd cheaper due to not being in on-campus accomodation?
    smile --- it makes people wonder what you are up to.... ;) :cool:
  • Hi, I hope you can help me. I'm currently doing a foundation degree and 'I've been turned down for tuition fee loan, maintenance loan and maintenance grant because I have already completed a BA. Is there anything that I can do?

    Thank you in advance.

    It completely depends where you live, for instance, I am currently paying £65 a week for campus but next year £52.50 exclusive (except water) in housing.

    Generally wise loans are all the same except for the last year which is lower so you are more likely going to work etc.

    Don't repeat posts. And more than likely no, the system is based on people getting better and forward, not going back.

    Did you get out of bed the wrong side this morning Lokolo - that wasn't a very gracious reply to Stephanie was it? I doubt if the post was posted twice on purpose and this was a first post - I think it deserved better than that don't you?

    I can completely understand accidental double posts as I myself have done them, however, when theres a difference of 4 hours.....

    No but one or the other would have done the trick.
