Hi, brand new to uni and everything,
I'm 25, male, decided I want to study CW at OU, I've missed the Feb deadline so looking to apply in time for October, going in completely blind, so need a lot of help please....
Re: student loans, looking to apply for the course/loans in March, I'll be living at home, but travelling to libraries/cafes (I can't focus properly when at home) I'm going to need a new laptop, looking to go w Apple for longevity and durability, will use their student discount providing I get the loan. Will I get extra money for a laptop/study accoutrement? I heard about something called a maintenance loan?
My mum is a carer so is claiming benefits, I understand that my benefits will stop once I get my loan (if approved) will my mum's be affected?
Sorry but I don't understand student loans properly? The SLC covers your fees right? so why do they give you cash? Is that a stupid question? I'm not the brightest haha, hence my want to study!
I have a couple of more questions but if anybody could help me so far, that'd be great.
Hi all, and thanks to anybody that answers
