Hi @Clf777

On the UCAS website it states that student finance applications for courses starting in September are expected to open around late March. However, as you will be reapplying for student finance it is typically a bit later and the deadline will be around June time. As long as you reapply for the finance before the deadline then you will be absolutely fine!

Here is the link to the UCAS website where I find out about the deadline, https://www.ucas.com/money-and-student-life/money/student-finance/student-finance-england#:~:text=Get%20ready%20to%20apply%20for%20student%20finance!,are%20expected%20to%20open%20in%20late%20March. Just incase you need to look back at it at any time!

I hope this helps, let me know if you have any other questions, I am more than happy to help!

Matt 🙂
