    submitting your student finance app late?
    So what happens if you submit your student finance app after the deadline? Or if its not processed until after the deadline?

    Does this mean you don't get your loan/grant etc at all or does it mean you get it late??

    It means that you're not guaranteed to get it in time for the start of your course. You can apply for funding for 2012-13 I believe up to 9 months after the beginning of your course (so mid-2013), but of course, if you need the money for accommodation and living expenses then it's best to do it as early as possible.
