Student finance maintenance loan

When I applied for university I firmed one that’s close to me so I’d live at home, and had one I’d have to move in to as my insurance
When I applied for student finance I filled it in with the details for my firm but also applied for a maintenance loan in case I ended up at my insurance and had to move out to cover living costs.
I thankfully got into my firm!! But now I don’t know if I’m supposed to not have a maintenance loan if I’m living at home? Like am I supposed to only have a tuition loan?

Hi there,

If you won't be living elsewhere and need to change this or vice versa, you can change this online in your account. If you click on view/manage your application, change your application and course details. You can then amend the section where you will be living during term time. If it doesn't let you do this online, it will give you the option to complete the CO1 Change of Circumstances Form to complete and upload under the evidence upload option. This link shows you how here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x_JvzAlga4s

Thanks,
Claire
