Student Loan

I am a 72 year old Pensioner distance learning for my first degree so qualify for a full student loan. In final year so quite an amount built up. However I shall never meet the earnings threshold for repayment
I never see the loan as it is drawn down direct from Uni.
Does this still impact on my credit score?
