I've applied to SFE for funding both for tuition & maintenance to study for an accelerated degree this year after previously studying a BSc with the Open University in 2022, I had to quit in the first term for personal reasons. I'm wondering will this affect me getting the tuition loan with it being my second time doing a Bsc? Even though I dropped out within 2/3 months of the course starting?
Also, I enrolled on Monday but my application is still processing and says to expect an update by the 30th of September, I am just wondering if it becomes approved on that date, will my maintenance loan be released having already enrolled on my course now?
Finally (sorry) I had to fill in a change of circumstances form because my uni has partnered with another uni and we needed to apply under the new uni name so i had to change the uni on my application, will this now delay the 30th of September deadline for an update/approval?
