i remember trying to find it last year, nightmare. Think you need to contact your LEA to get it, give them a ring.
You should be able to find their phone number if you google it

From memory I dont think it is, as the form needs to go to different places depending where you live. It goes to your Local Education Authority (LEA)

get a non-student loan

It's usually on the form or one of the cover letters.
If not, ask your local council who you submitted your assessment form to initially.

student loans are generally for Full time students doing degrees, or grants to cover fees for p/t students. Not sure if College students can get any funding

I just walked into the college, pretended to be a thick bastard & got a woman to fill the form out for me & send it off, managed to get £4500 loan & £2000 hardship grant

No im not earning any money yet
Once you earn over £16k you start paying it off in small amounts - £20 a month or something!! I dont really look at it as debt tbh.
