NHS learning support fund

Has anyone applied for the NHS LSF and applied without a student loan?

I qualify due to the allied health course I have an offer for & im a UK citizen etc. I would qualify for Student Loan but I don’t want one.

Since applying for NHS LSF I’ve been asked for lots of extra documents as I’m not going for the student loan. Really hoping I’m not being penalised & looking for some positive stories of others who have had the LSF without student loan.
