Student Finance

Hello, I applied for student finance 2 days ago but I put in a potential firm for the uni choice and course, I want to change it as I have changed my mind, is it possible for me to cancel and restart it?

Once your application is approved, you can change the university/bank details etc

do you not have to do the form which takes 6 weeks?

Don't cancel your application. Details here (with a link to a video) on how to change your uni:

Use the link from @normaw. If you have already completed your form, and added a university. See it as a place holder. Once you meet your grades and have an unconditional offer, and are about to enroll, you can update all details that need updating without having to reapply.

Hi there,
I had a similar experience with this so it can be frustrating. I found that I was able to edit my student finance application by logging back in and change my university choice that way. If you are struggling I would recommend contacting student finance and asking them if they can help.

I do hope this helps,

Hello!
I just wanted to jump onto this thread and recommend you getting into contact with student finance personally, it's a little wait on hold but they will be able to help you and walk you through your options!
I wouldn't recommend cancelling it, the wait is quite long in terms of approving applications and you'll be setting yourself back.
If this is a route you wish to take, I have provided their contact details below.
0300 100 0607

Hope this gets sorted for you.
Kind regards,
Courtney H
