Independent student maintenance loan

Hi,

I am going into 1st year of university at 24 and will be 25 at the start of my 2nd year and will be classed as an independent student where they do not look at parents household income. I have never supported myself financially and have always lived with parents. Except for when I go to university where I am planning to move out. What is the maximum or minimum maintenance loan I would be eligible for in my 2nd year?

Any help or advice would be much appreciated

Thanks

Hi there,

When would you be starting your 2nd year? Would you be 25 before your next Academic Year starts? Thanks, Ross

Hi, I would be turning 25 before the 2nd year. I would be starting my 2nd year in September 2025.
