These concessions only apply as long as you are in receipt of benefit. If you stop receiving benefit you are required to inform the College and a fee will be charged for the rest of your course on a pro-rata basis.
Obviously the reverse will apply. But check with them."Follow the money!" - Deepthroat (AKA William Mark Felt Sr - Associate Director of the FBI)

Pap, my initial reaction is that you should go to college. Even if that £200 sets you back a month in your moving out fund... its the next step to a better job and/or more training and a career you enjoy. The longer you are doing a job you don't enjoy the worse you'll feel, if you know you are using your day off to do something so positive it might help you cope with the cr*p days at work
Don't stress, relax, let life roll off your backs. Except for death and paying taxes, everything in life is only for now... Avenue QOfficial DFW Nerd Club - Member no. 003Proud to have become debt free... and striving to keep it that way

Hi PAP
Sorry if i've missed another post, but have you checked website below as well
http://www.direct.gov.uk/en/EducationAndLearning/UniversityAndHigherEducation/StudentFinance/index.htm
Does your employer do any grants to encourage further education?
best wishes

Do you actually have to make a decision about whether you are going to college or not now? Why don't you save up and see how much you have by September. You might be able to afford both.The forest would be very silent if no birds sang except for the birds that sang the best0

hi all
kath, yes that what i would like to do as its only 3/4 of my months set back, i dread work everyday but if i know that soon i wont have to cope there it will be a godsend
zippy, no i hadnt seen that website i will take time to read that as soon as possible.
tes, it has to be paid before the course starts i dont know how far in advance though and i cant find that info on the web, i will need to contact them i think :rolleyes:0 -
Right, if you put aside £50 per month from May for college, you will have the money by August. How much on top of that can you save per month for your moving out fund?The forest would be very silent if no birds sang except for the birds that sang the best0

Why dont you phone the college while youre off work and ask them when the money has to be paid by, then at least you will know and will be able to plan accordingly.The forest would be very silent if no birds sang except for the birds that sang the best0
