Sponsored Student? Help needed quickly please!

Hello there!

I'm just in the process of applying for my accommodation, and it's come up to the bit saying 'I am a sponsored student', with a tick box next to it.

As a sponsored student, it says "This means that somebody else (ie an organisation such as a college, business or government) will be paying for some or all of your accommodation expenses. "

I just wanted to check therefore whether I am a sponsored student. I assumed I would be because of the Student Finance Maintenance Loan, but I don't know whether this counts or not?

I'd be very grateful of a quick answer!

Thank you ^^

No, it doesn't count :smile: it's if someone is PAYING for you to go. Your maintenance loan is juast a loan - you'll pay ultimately.

And which option should I choose if I'm going to get a maintenance grant?

Still not sponsored. Unless someone (i.e. a company) is paying for you.
Okie-dokie, thanks.
