I'm leaving uni before Christmas (pretty much in the next few days or so) and I wondered what happened with my maintenance loan. Obviously my tuition fees wont be paid to the university but my student flat is on a 10 month lease, and no maintenance loan means I'm stuck without a paddle. I hate my course so I don't want to stay just to get the money, but the next load is due on the 17th Jan, do I have to cancel it myself or will they know that I've dropped out?
I do have a job, but it's 30 miles away back home and there's nothing available here, so I'd be working full time to barely afford a flat I wont be living in.
Also, does the loan arrive depending on whether I attend the first few days in January or do I just get it (If I stay on)?
Thanks guys, this whole thing confuses me :/
