how do i get a student loan?

Options
Hi, i'm currently a second year. I got a student loan last year but now no loan goes through to my account. I haven't signed up again as I did not receive anything in the post at the start of the year.

Is it too late to get a loan, and is it possible to do it online?

Thanks

    No its not too late, you have 6 months from the start of your course

    The best thing to do is go see student services, and they will probably point you to your local lea, youll have a form to fill in which you then return

    Good luck

    Just give the SLC a call and request a form. Fill in, sign and return, and they'll be able to sort that out for you. I was in the similar situation last year (applied after the start of term). Managed to get my loan through within a couple of weeks.
  • cool, actually, i done it online just now! just needed art id and stuff because it's the same as last year

    thanks anyway
