Cover letter for SFE?

Hi there,
What is the doctors letter for? Is it to apply for Compelling Personal Reasons? Is it for the 2024/25 academic year?
Thanks, Drew

Hi, yes and yes 🙂 it took some time to get ahold of the doctors letter

Thanks. You can apply online and then submit this evidence via your account once the application has been submitted. Thanks, Jason

Thank you, would i then post the letters once I’ve submitted online?

Hi there,
No it can just be uploaded from your online account and would not need to be posted.
Thanks, Drew

Hi unsweetenedblue,
Yes, you would need to leave your previous course before applying for a new course. You cannot get funding for two courses at the same time.
Thanks,

No, The evidence can be digitally uploaded to your account. You don't need to post this. Thanks, Jason

Thanks so much so far, processing my withdrawal from current uni is taking up to 4 weeks, surely it would still be okay to apply for finance now for new uni alongside letters and supporting evidence?

Hi there ,
If your application doesn't show yet as withdrawn, you can still apply, but you would need to do this one paper application. If you applied now while its now withdrawn, the system will think you're a continuing student when you will be classed as a new student. You can find the application on the website here https://www.gov.uk/student-finance-forms
The application will need to be posted to us, the address is on the form. You can send this together with your evidence and cover letter.
Thanks,
Claire
