DRO and student loan advice
Hello
I am half way through my DRO granted in march this year. I am looking in to starting a college course and have found out that I can apply for an advanced learning loan which will pay for the course and I won't have to pay back until I am earning £21000 as far as I know the fees are paid direct to the learning provider. So my question is would this affect the DRO in any way?

If its paid to your course directly it shouldnt matter as you arent seeing the money as such. You must tell the learning loan institute that you are subject to a DRO as you must inform anyone who you borrow more than £500 of this fact. It shouldnt matter a great deal - but you need to inform them so you are keeping to the t&c you accepted when the DRO was granted.0
