    for some reason my student finance application is showing me how much i'm entitled to for a maintenance grant, but it has N/A next to it.
    i want to apply for both this and a maintenance loan but its not letting me apply for the grant

    Don't worry, You will still be considered for it. It's just that you are either entitled to it or you aren't so there's no need to mention a maximum amount you're entitled to.

    When you send off your application, you will be applying for the maintenance grant.

    N/A is for the amount you've requested - because you don't request a maintenance grant - by giving your financial details you're automatically assessed for it, and will be given the amount you're entitled to.
