Not had time to read the full thread properly as I'm in a bit of a rush but I notice d the bit about paying back some money for a home learning course...have you thought of contacting that company and asking if you delay payments for a year? If you (politely) tell them that they either come to an agreement with you about the money or chase you through the courts for it as you can't afford to pay it then they'll more than likely be prepared to do a deal with you.
Have you thought about asking a family member for a loan? Obviously I don't know your family background but if you've got a financially comfortable family member they might be prepared to lend you some money (and probably interest free!). Or how about asking a family member if they're prepared to take out a loan for you and you'll pay them back once you've finished Uni? The added bonus of that is that they'll probably get a better rate of interest on the loan.
I'd also advise checking out the matched betting forum (see "Gambling Introductory Loophole" forum)...it really is easy money and you should have no trouble making £500 out of it.
How far do you live from Uni? Have you thought of walking to Uni?Salford RLFC and MUFC since 1986.0
