Could my savings affect me getting a course/fee grant from the open university?

Hello everyone,

I currently study at the open university and have my course fee paid for due to my low income. Recently i have sold my house and i put my money into a saving account.
Does anyone know if my savings will stop me from geting the course/fee grant?

many thanks

Go through their 'financial support calculator' with your current financial circumstances and see what the answer would be. It was in the OU FAQ's for people to see if it would be worth their while even claiming. http://www3.open.ac.uk/contact/faq.aspx?t=S&cat=1-1GSQZC
