Student Loan repayment
I started my degree course in 09/1997 when I was aged 38.SLC tell me that the debt will be wiped when I reach the age of 60.
However the table on MSE seems to suggest that for loans taken out between 1990 and 1997 the 'write off' age is 50 if aged under 40.Does this mean under 40 now or under 40 at the start of one's course?
Apologies if I sound a bit 'thick' but my degree is in French and Spanish and mathematics was never my strong point!

Under 40 when you took out your first loan; SLC have got it wrong (again!)0 -
Why do they bother charging us graduates in the first place. I have no idea. Scottish students do not get charge so why us English eh?
Mine will never be paid back. Just stay within the law of your living address ad income. And reply to the letter each April of every year, if not, write to them.Hi, we’ve had to remove your signature. If you’re not sure why please read the forum rules or email the forum team if you’re still unsure - MSE ForumTeam0 -
