    Unfortunately the way student loans are setup the amount the student can borrow for living costs is seriously limited starting from if the parents earn over £30k. My kids get the minimum loan which doesn't even cover their housing costs.

    I am aware of that ( having paid for student accommodation for my own children )but still most of the overall cost including the tuition fees is covered by the Student loans.
