January start courses

How does finance work for a foundation course that starts in January and runs for 3.5 years. The foundation year has been ‘accelerated’ into Jan to July with only a week break for Easter, then the normal three year degree starts in September.

Do you just get a % of the maintenance loan for the first shorter foundation year and then it runs as usual from September for the remaining years? I.e. do you apply for finance now and then again in September?

The tuition fees fees are the normal full amount for the first accelerated year, I assume they are all covered ok? So it will be four lots of £9250 needed.

Thanks.
