Universal Credit and Maintenance Loans

So I've put in my maintenance loan application and I was wondering if my universal credit is going to effect anything. Because I'm going to be a full time student my Universal Credit is going to stop.

I suppose I'm mostly worried that me being on universal credit is going to lower my maintenance loan even when I won't be receiving universal credit in conjunction with the loan. Sorry if I didn't explain it well but if anyone has advice it would be appreciated

Hi Ewan,

Receiving Universal Credit will not affect your Maintenance Loan at all.

Thanks,
Ross
