Student Finance

I am applying for university for September 2021 and was wondering when to apply for student finance. Am I meant to do it before I go to uni, as in around this time? Or is it meant to be done just before/after I start?

Any help is appreciated :smile:

You're meant to apply via UCAS, otherwise you wont get any student finance.

This year, student finance opened for applications for 2020 around mid March, so it’ll probably be the same next year and just get it over and done as soon as it’s open to apply for :smile:

Yep it’s on the gov website, but at the moment you can’t apply for next year and my sixth form just sent us an email in mid March with the link when it was open in March

Yeah that’s the course application and then you go to student finance website and apply for the funding of the course
@Ha loL, are you genuinely ignorant about the process of applying for student finance, or wilfully trying to mislead the OP?
