    If you haven't already google "Access to Success Route".

    Can't remember the full gist of it, but my sister only paid £75 in tuition fees for the first year.

    The op has already done their first year so why are you suggesting access to success? - They are not able to take that route.

    Chill!

    It's 1am I didn't re-read through the whole thread again - and like I said, I can't remember the full gist, wasn't aware it was only for Year 1.

    When I applied to Uni (a year ago), Student Loans were effected by household income.

    As I live with only 1 parent, not on a great income, I got the full loan, plus bursaries.

    I think the top limit was somewhere around £27-30k. I know people who were offered small loans as their household income was near the threshold.

    Those are the loans which are available for maintenance for full time courses, the situation is completely different for full time study.
