Can I apply for student loan while in DRO?

Is there a restriction of getting student loan if DRO is in Credit history? Or while DRO is in place?

Thanks.

    It shouldn't affect your ability to get a student loan, but if you do get one whilst still under the DRO then you may no longer qualify for the DRO (as you may have more than £50/disposable income once the income from the student loans is taken in to account).

    Worth speaking to which ever debt advice agency is advising you on the DRO about the situation.
