    Student Finance, now what? What next?
    So I think I've completed everything on my account, it says they have received the evidence they need, what is supposed to happen now?

    When you log in to your account on SLC I presume, it should say you need to something else or do nothing at all.

    If they say they have all the evidence, I'm pretty sure you just wait for them to contact you now, I think you will probably receive a letter detailing how much you're expected to receive next.

    They will most likely send you a declaration to sign and return with the amounts you are entitled to on it. They could ask for some further evidence but this doesn't normally happen.

    They told me what I'm entitled to on the website, I haven't had a form sent to me, I sent one to them. And what am I supposed to do with SLC? I had no idea that was used? I thought it was all through student finance?

    It can take around 6-8 weeks for them to send you the form, so don't worry about not having received it yet. SLC stands for 'Student Loans Company' and is the organisation that runs SFE ('Student Finance England').

    Thanks, I created another thread on the decalration form because this one seemed to be slow moving haha.

    I finished my application and had all my evidence sent, and recognition of entitlement to loans from my uni, and SFE, on the 8th of may.

    I haven't received it yet, so this is exactly the 5th week.

    College have been completely useless with it, the two Finance staff are either increadibly cynical or don't actually know ... when I asked them which form to send in as evidence given my situation, I forget the name(s), but there are different ones like PFF2, P1, P2, or similar.

    The answer I get it "huh? I dunno, erm, ring them or something, have you got their number"?

    :mad: :mad: :mad:
