You might need to ask your parents to help support you until your maintenance loan come through, and also contact your unis finance department to let them know that you are a late applicant.

I'm working a part time job so don't need help for maintenance. Another question I had was if I earn lets say £900-£1000 from my part time job a month will that affect my student finance?

SFE doesn't take a student's earned income into account - just unearned income (eg interest on savings, etc.).
