Is anyone else having problems with the online application? I've been getting the same error at the same point of the application and it's driving me nuts. Should I just delete it and start again? ImageUploadedByStudent Room1460813013.952587.jpg

Because the error is unknown, have you tried things like using another browser?

Yes, I have tried on my phone and 3 different computers on different browsers!

My mum dosnt have a P60 but she has a Annual Tax Summary. Does that count?
Thanks in advance.
Do you have to be accessing the website from a computer in the UK for it to work?? I'm on my year abroad and need to apply for my finance for my final year (next year) but the webpage isn't loading at all for me :frown:
Hello :biggrin:

After applying to Student Finance Services and also receiving a letter from them, I noticed a mistake: it's the wrong college! (The right university, the wrong college/campus)

The thing is... I am 100% sure I wrote it correctly. And in fact, a friend of mine is also in the same trouble.

***wat do?***
Please help a poor, uneducated soon-to-be(-or-maybe....?) student with an infinitely kind piece of advice! :colondollar:

You might be able to change it online? If not, you'll have to phone up. It's simple to do.

Hey!So I'm a continuing EU student and last month I got a letter from Student Finance saying that the only thing I would have to do in order to get my tuition fee loan is to send it back with my signature. A month later still no reply from them and I'm kind of worried ;( Anyone else experiencing the same problem?
Hi.

The deadline is 27th May. My application is submitted. My parents still have to do their bit and send stuff off. SFE said it can take 6 weeks for processing which puts me well past the deadline. Is that 6 weeks separate from the deadline?

Nah I think you have to send your stuff before the deadline, but the parents part can be after

Thanks. Also what's the protocol if one parent doesn't want to support the application, even though I live with both?

Jheeze, that was a super quick reply, thanks! :biggrin:
Is the 27th of May deadline the day we need to send it by or the day they should have completed our application. Is it fine if I send my application and my parents tomorrow?

If you send it by the 27th, then your money will be ready by the time you start in September. You can apply for finance up to 9 months after your course starts.
Hi there,

For anyone who is a current offer with London Met and needs help with your student finance application we have a workshop to help, one tomorrow (18/5/2016) and one next Wednesday (25/5/2016).

Let us know if you have any questions or need anymore info.

Do you have to apply separately each year? My parents say they're happy to pay my accommodation costs for year 1, which meansI don't need a maintainance grant that year, but do need it in other ones - at the moment because my application is only for the first year, it hasn't asked me for any financial info on account of me not asking for maintainance loan.
