Hi Sosaaaaaaaa,

Can you confirm if you will be working throughout your studies?

well idk, probably but i would need to look for a job
Hi Sosaaaaaaaa,

If you are an EU national with pre-settled status he only way you can be eligible for a maintenance loan is by applying as a Migrant Worker. You will need to be working throughout your studies at an acceptable level and to send us evidence of this.

so will i need to find a job before applying for student finance or will i be able to apply before uni and then find a job?
Hi Sosaaaaaaaa,

You need to be in employment on the 1st day of the academic year to qualify for Term 1 funding. You also need to be working at a level where you can financially support yourself in order for your maintenance funding to be approved.

Can this job be in any legal way shape or form whether its an actual job or freelancing?
Hi Sosaaaaaaaa,

Yes it needs to be legal but we can accept evidence of self-employment
