Am I entitled for 2013/14?

Hi Mark

I went to uni and left after 4months. It was a two year accelerated Bachelors degree.

I have repaid the full amount of grant I was overpaid to SFE already. Although I still have about £5k worth of tuition fees and maintenance loans to pay back if that helps.

What I would like to do is a four year course with a foundation year.

As far as I am aware the formula means that it would be 4 + 1 -1 = 4 years.

However as I started a Bsc and am now going backwards - wanting to start a foundation year on a different course would I still get finance? as my account is telling me otherwise.

If yes, if I ring up student finance can I sort it out?

If no, is there anyone else I can apply to for additional funding?

Thanks a lot, most grateful.

Hi Chanc,

I'll need a bit more info. Did you gain any qualifications from your previous period of study?

Thanks,

Hi again Chan,

That's great, thanks for getting back to me.

Based on this information you'll be entitled to a full degree worth of student finance.

Many thanks,
Mark-Lee :smile:

Thanks a lot Mark!

Very relieved to hear that, I will ring student finance soon because my account says I am entitled to £0.

Thanks again for all your help! :smile:
