How much student finance in third year of undergraduate degree?

My understanding is that student finance money falls a bit in the last year yet I’m unaware is to how much it genuinely decreases. I’ve heard many percentages as to how much it falls but I want a clearer answer. I’m in my first year of uni so some time before my third year but still I think it’s important to know.
Do you get the maximum loan or the minimum loan at the moment?

The reduction isn’t large - it’s only the small amount that is provided to help cover costs over the summer holidays.
It's around about a 5 to 7% reduction for the maximum amount in each category (i.e. living in London, not in London, with parents) so I'm assuming it's fairly similar to that ballpark, maybe slightly more if your course ends notably early. Note that it's a 10% reduction if it forms your year abroad (though this is normally your penultimate year if you do one at all) and it's 0% if you're over 60 when you start.

The idea is that you get the same rate as your other years, but the other years include a summer holiday whereas, in theory, you could enter the world of full-time work as soon as your term ends in your final year.

The amount of student finance available in the third year of an undergraduate degree can vary depending on several factors, including the country where the student is studying, their individual circumstances, and the type of student finance they are eligible for.
In many countries, including the United Kingdom, student finance typically consists of a combination of loans, grants, and possibly scholarships. The specific amount available in the third year may be influenced by factors such as changes in tuition fees, maintenance loan rates, and any additional financial support available based on the student's household income.
To determine the exact amount of student finance available in the third year of an undergraduate degree, students should consult with the relevant government student finance authority or their university's financial aid office. These sources can provide detailed information on the types of financial assistance available and how to apply for them based on individual circumstances. Additionally, students may be able to access online calculators or resources provided by the student finance authority to estimate the amount of funding they could receive.
