Hi.

Yes.

If you can totally pay for example 6,935? Per year? And also transportation costs and assesories like books etc then yes.

Then if you use student finance you can:

1.Take out a tuition fees loan
2.Maintenance fees loan

Your maintenance fee loan and how much you will get depends on your financial circumstances and sometimes family financial circumstances.

I am a student in London.

I take out these two loans each year.

Regards.

I've moved your thread to the Ask SFE forum so that an official SFE/SLC rep will reply. :smile:
Hi there,

So you want to self fund your 1st year for the Tuition Fee Loan and then get the Tuition Fee Loan in the 2nd year? Have you ever studied before or do you hold an undergraduate qualification?

Thanks, Drew
