Repeat Year - Tuition Fee loan

I was registered and given student funding for a 4 year BSc Mathematics which I successfully completed the foundation year and then transferred onto 1st year computer science at a different uni. However, I have failed my 1st year and need to repeat it this year again. I have not been granted a tuition fee loan and I start uni in a month. Considering I was registered onto a 4 year course, I should be able to get one extra year of funding making it 5 years total. I would really appreciate all the help I can get.

Hi there,

How long is your new course?

Thanks,
Claire

Hi. It's 3 years.

Hi there, The way we calculate eligibility for funding is as follows:
Course length (3 years) plus 1 additional year = 4 years of funding - any previous years of study/funding (2 years) - remaining entitlement would be 2 years only which would be applied to years 2 and 3 of your course. This is why no Tuition Fee has been awarded. Was there any specific reason that you failed the first year? Thanks, Angela

Hi. It's 3 years.

Hi there, Are you having to repeat the year due to some Compelling Personal Reasons? Thanks, Angela

Yes.
