How do i cut off my family in University?

I plan to cut them off as soon as I move into an accommodation at university. Not going to go into detail but they're toxic and I definitely don't want them in my life. I'm just not sure how certain stuff would work like student finance and other things. Student loans and other things too.

I'm in the year below and planning something similar. If I were you, I'd suggest going to a university out of country or far away from your family and look for possible full scholarships that'd help you. Getting a part time job would be helpful but if your parents won't let you, try looking for remote jobs that help such as data entry or online tutoring until you move into your university. You could then look for part time jobs there to help pay for other necessities. Try to buy cheap but quality items and search for discounts to save money. Books for uni could probably found online for cheaper or even free. I hope I helped you

Its best if you have a word with student finance. Your parents do have to create an account and put their earnings in (after you done your application). But if they not willing to help with that, then its best to see what your options are with student finance.
