do i need to take out a maintenance loan to get a maintenance grant?
Do you need to take out the full maintenance loan possible in order to recieve the maintenance grant?

Of course.
They give the grant if your families income means that the maintenance loan isn't enough for you to live off because they cannot help you financially. You can't receive free money without taking the maximum that you have to pay back first.

but what if you only need to take out part of the loan (not the full amount possible)?? Do you still get some money from the grant?
Or just none at all, so it might be better to take out the full loan in order to get the grant

As far as I'm aware you can choose how much of a loan you want. And you should still get grant money if your family income is below a certain amount.

People being able to take grants before taking loans is a clear sign that the system is broken.
Pay for your ****ing degree like the rest of us.

If you only need part of the loan, you don't need the grant. They tend to be pretty strict about giving away free money, so you probably wouldn't get away with it.

Another ignorant comment from you.
People in receivership of grants are paying their degrees like 'the rest of you'. Stop being bitter and crying because you don't get one and get a grip.

No. That's not what you said at all. I quote
'Clear sign that the system is broken'. All present tense. Where in that did you say 'if they were able to'? Unfortunately I cannot mind read and can't interpret what you MEANT to say with what you actually did say.
You need to stop chatting nonsense and hush your gums sunshine.

I can see that he meant IF people could take out grants without the loan... It wasn't like blatently obvious but I can see that.
but the "pay for your ****ing loan" or soemthing, THAT was a bit silly from him because they clearly are.

PROTIP: "People being able to" =/= "People are able to".
If I said "People being able to jump over the moon would be a strange sight to behold" it wouldn't mean that I was under the belief that people are able to jump over the moon. I intentionally selected my words in this way.
Try harder.

Who's being pedantic? Nothing wrong about what I said. Pipe down big nose, this doesn't concern you.
People need to check their facts before they post or at least state that they are unsure of what they are saying.
I'm currently a second year, for both years I have received full grant but no loan.
So there you have it, you DON'T need a loan to get the grant. When signing up on student finance just click you want you account income assesed and when asked how much loan you want to take out you just put £0 in the box.

I'm fairly sure this is the case.
They're not going to give you free money if you don't "need" the money (and if you're saying you don't need the loan, it's basically saying you don't need extra help- if that makes sense).

I doubt this... but. If this is the case, then the system is indeed broken.

yes there is. you really sound like a vile little chav, you realise? "pipe down"? is this not a public forum? or are you trying to make it sound like some sort of serious business where little ones such as myself are unwelcome? wait, no.. youre just an idiot.
the way you broke down the argument was equivalent to the following:
person A says: "on the condition that x occurs, y is true"
you say: "oh look, you said the precise words "y is true" therefore that is what you meant"
good reasoning
whats worse than your patronising posts is the fact that you pathetically rose to what was a pretty dumb comment; you tried to decompose it with **** reasoning. if youre going to be pedantic, do it properly or you look like a fool (too late now). you should have ignored the dumb comment if it offended you that much because we all know they were just looking for a reaction; you just gave a piss poor reaction which is a shame.
