No, I went to Scotland because I wanted to live there, University was just a nice coincidence. I turned down better Universities in England for my course, just to go to Scotland.
It's frustrating because in fact my parents/family all wanted me not to go to Scotland, and wanted to me to apply to only English Universities near them. I even fell out with my own parents for over a year after I left to go to Edinburgh, no contact or support. To this day they still want me to move back to the midlands but I just don't fit in there, heck I didn't even grow up there. I chose Scotland specifically to live there, not for University. It's just a coincidence that every other 18 year old in the country is doing University in this day and age... How am I supposed to differentiate between my desire to live in Scotland and having to go to University?
Thanks for your advice though, it was helpful nonethless and SAAS will probably see it the same way as you described.
Edit: I chatted with SAAS on the phone and the lady sounded quite positive that I could be eligible for a loan after I explained I was a UK citizen growing up abroad, though it sounds like when it's time for applications, I'm going to have to be prepared to battle for approval :/ ..
