    The only way to find out is to ask the loans companies. Why have you defaulted? Is it because you couldn't afford to pay or because you forgot to pay it? (I am assuming that you are young if you are planning on going to uni)
    Paid off the last of my unsecured debts in 2016. Then saved up and bought a property. Current aim is to pay off my mortgage as early as possible. Currently over paying every month. Mortgage due to be paid off in 2036 hoping to get it paid off much earlier. Set up my own bespoke spreadsheet to manage my money.
