Hi Millie,

Thanks for responding. That's what I ended up doing! Hopefully it doesn't delay the process for too long. I'll let you know how I get on :smile:

This is the same situation i am in. Put your new legal name on the application. They will contact you to tell you it is different and ask for evidence of name change. I sent in my Deed Poll certificate and everything is fine. :smile:

It would be great to hear back from you on how it went so that we can compare situations and give advice.

Hope this helps. :smile:

I have downloaded the EUPR1a 2019/20 form but it doesn't have anything regarding maintenance loan...only states the tuition fee loan. Is there an extra form?

EU students aren't entitled to a maintenance loan unless they have been resident in the UK for 5 years before the start of their course or qualify as a migrant worker/child of a migrant worker.

If you're eligible for a maintenance loan then you need to complete the SFE application for UK students not the EU paper form.

My mistake. I need to fill the PR1 form as this will be the second year? I remember that the first year I filled the PN1 form.

Hi there,

I'll turn 20 this August. I've been living in UK for 1 year and i never lived in EU (I have different nationality). My dad is an EU National and have been working in UK for last 4 years. Last year i applied for student loan but got rejected (I don't actually remember that in which category i applied). University of Manchester is treating me as a Home student. If i apply as a child of Immigrant worker will i be eligible for it ? as my EU friend have not lived in UK and EU for atleast three years & he's getting the loan from SFE.

Waiting for your response

I have applied for a degree apprenticeship but don't know if I have a place yet. My backup is uni, should I wait until I know what I'm doing before applying for a loan for uni? Is it better to apply for a loan now and then cancel it if I get the apprenticeship? I know there is no loan for apprenticeships but I have been told to apply for the loan sooner rather than later.

I have a BA Hons degree, completed a PGCE but wanting to go on to children’s nursing. Would I be able to get funding for an MSc 2 year course?

Thank you

You've missed the deadline to be guaranteed payment at the start of your course - but you still have time to apply and get paid a little late. Apply asap to minimise any delay.
