Prudential Endowment Update Letter

I've received our endowment update letter today. We took out a Scottish Amicable endowment in Sept 93 and am now with Prudential
It matures in September 2018 and we have paid £104.50 per month since 1993 hoping for a payout of £75000.
I have always taken serious notice of our amber alert letters and paid a lump sum off with our misselling award of £3700. We also reduced the interest only amount on our mortgage to £66,000 4 years ago to cover the 4% projection at the time.
Projections are now 50,777 at 4% 59,500 at 6% and 69,700 at 8%.
Obviously I have 9 years for the market to recover and the Pru have the best reputation. The repayment part of our mortgage has 11 years to go. I'm already overpaying as much as I can and this has reduced the term by 2 1/2 years. I could do nothing and add any shortfall to the repayment part but I don't want a nasty lump of £24000 to pay when I'm trying to financially support children through uni.
Our budget is very tight at the moment as our dd is getting married next year. Any advice would be much appreciated.
