The Student Room Group

Maintenance loan much higher than expected

I had my student finance approved this morning and received the maximum amount, for living away from home outside London (£10,227) when I should be, based on parents income, more around the minimum amount. Will they lower this later? Should I do anything about this? I don’t want to be stuck later down the line if I have been overpaid?

Hi there,

Can you please confirm your age? How much did your parents earn in the 22/23 tax year?

Thanks, Graeme

Hi Graeme,
I’m 18 and combined they earned around £80/90,000 I’m pretty sure
Hi there. Is this amount showing during your application process or have you been sent an entitlement letter confirming this is what you will be awarded? Thanks, David
