Studied between 2006 and 2009. Does the loan get written off?

Options
I have a loan which I have partially paid back and continue to do so.
Will this be written off at any point in the near future if I don't pay it off completely by a certain date?

    On the 25th anniversary of 6th April after you left the course.

    Would that be 2035?

    if you left Summer 2009. The following April is April 2010. Wind forward 25 years takes you to April 2035. So yes it would be written off April 2035. There is the requirement that you are not in payment arrears, but otherwise the write off is automatic.
