Why weren't you allowed a loan? Even if your parent's income is above the threshold, EVERYONE can take out 75% of the maximum...

Well the sensible option would have been to take the maximum available loan, stick in in a high interest savings account that you can't touch, and then pay it straight off at the end

You can get a loan, but no grants if your combined family income is over something rediculous like £20k

thats right, which really pisses me off. i used my loan to pay fees but the payments wheren't there when i went to enrol, i kicked off when they said about parents paying for it. Just cos i live at home doesn't mean they are going to pay for me The slack bitch was sayign the loan i had was just for expenses and that if i lived at home they expected my rents to pay. They stare at me in disguist when i spend any money cos i don't pay board, doubt they are going to dish me a grand out.

I said that but ended up buying a flat instead Oh well, 20k down, 30k to pay Also put money down i got off my Nan when she died and insurance money off the Focus. Thinking of writting the Saxo off so i get my 6k back Might get a P reg Corsa then for 50p
