Hello, I applied for student finance for first year (starting this month) in early June, and after a month or so I received an email stating that I needed to send a letter:
'We need some more information to process your application. You need to send
us a signed and dated letter confirming any previous study you’ve done. You
need to tell us:
• course title
• higher education providers name and town
• start and end date of the course
• if you studied on a full-time or part-time basis
• qualification gained or details of why you were unable to complete
your studies
or if you gained an exit qualification as you left the course early - which
qualification did you gain and how long was the course meant to be if you
completed the full course.
Please upload this cover letter and a copy of your certificate.
We can progress with your application once we have this information.'
After consulting with a couple of my friends who have previously applied for student finance and attended the same college and Access to HE course as I have, they concluded that I probably made a mistake on my application with the Access to HE course details and put a HE one instead. I haven't been able to get into contact with anyone about this nor can I check or change this information on the website and I cannot cancel/withdraw my application as there is an endless loop of calling, receiving a link to cancel, to being told to call to cancel. I've already uploaded evidence of my certificates but my application remains on the 'processing application' section. What should I do?
