Dropping out of masters - overpayment?
@SFE Isaac
Hi, Isaac. I started my master's degree in February and received my second payment in April. I'm considering withdrawing from the course due to health reasons.
I did start full time but I am now doing part time but still feel this is too much for my health.
Would I be in overpayment for the money received in April?
If it is overpayment how would this be paid? Could I set up a direct debit or is it taken once I earn over the threshold?
Thanks

Hi Ayesha. Yes, if you withdraw from the course this will result in an overpayment. If this happens, you would be contacted directly by our Collections team who would then discuss your options for repaying the overpaid amount. Thanks, David
