Worried Sick about SFE situation

Hi all

So this year I started university and then dropped out in October 10. I called student finance then to cancel my application because I was no longer attending the university and they did so. Such so 2 weeks ago I grt an email from the university that I am liable to pay the 2.3k tuition fees for the first term which is absurd but oh well.

I am worried that I may have to pay this out of pocket and I am not in a financial position to do so and this is worrying me sick. I now have to write a letter to student finance about my situation but I am just worried they won’t approve or won’t help me, does anyone know or have experience in this field and situation??

Hi Jameson1732,

If you cancelled the application/requested that we cancel the application, this usually can't be reinstated.

You can however, make a new application for 23/24 on your account so that the university can claim the costs for the duration you attended and they can send a withdrawal notification to confirm the date of your last attendance.

Hi there
Thanks for your reply
If I set up another application for the 23/24 year so that they can take their 25% will this affect my funding for the 2024/25 year? I have 0 years in university but I know that this 25% counts as 1 year so my gift year, will this affect next years funding as I am currently on a gap year
