    my student finance offer changed for some reason
    For the course i applied for, I received a letter in april detailing the offer of student finance. The letter stated that £8500 would be paid directly to the university. The new letter i received the other day, however, states that the amount that would be paid to the university is £6500. So im wondering if the tuition fee has changed without me knowing.

    Sounds plausible look on the website or Phone the university, you automatically get paid all fees upfront so this look like what's happened.

    congratulations you jammy git

    are you from a lower income household? because a lot of unis have lowered their fees for people with lower household incomes -usually £20k or less
