Hi,

Recently handed my notice in after two years with my company and two years of doing a day release degree.

As expected they want to recover the costs from myself, I don't have the full amount just to give them so ideal situation would be to come to a monthly figure I can pay them back or get some sort of loan to pay in full.

Is there a student loan/grant out there that could possibly help me do this? I currently have another year to do with this so effectively still a student. anyone had any experiences they would like to share.

Just to clarify, I had signed an agreement and no i don't want to carry on working here for a couple more years lol.

Thanks

Alex

    You can only ask nicely as I don't think there are any "rights" to fall back on here.

    Worst case is they could deduct whatever you owe from your final pay, right down to zero, then expect immediate payment of anything still outstanding.
