In the first of two student finance blogs this month,?Mark-Lee Kelly, Communications & Social Media Assistant at Student Finance England gives us an overview of how to make an application, what additional support you may be entitled to and what happens in terms of repayments: Universities and colleges in the UK are able to charge different fees for their different courses, up to a maximum amount of ?9,000 for a full time course. Tuition fee loans are available to cover the costs of university fees and these are paid directly to the university or college, while maintenance loans are paid directly to you to help with living costs while you?re studying. ?You may also be eligible to receive a non repayable maintenance grant if your household income was below ?42,875 in the 11/12 tax year. When should I apply?
Applications are open now and should be completed online as soon as possible at www.gov.uk/studentfinance You don?t need to have a confirmed university place to apply for student finance as you can enter your first choice of course which can be updated easily at a later date. The deadline for new students is 31 May 2013 and 28 June for returning students. What do I need to start applying?
?Before completing your application you?ll need to have the following to hand:
? National Insurance Number ? The university or college course details There is a section for parents or partners to complete and it may help to have their National Insurance number to hand, if you?re applying for student finance based on the household income. Should any evidence be requested we would advise sending it in straight away! Repayments are only made once you have left university or college and are earning over the threshold. The amount that is paid is dependent on your income and not the amount that has been borrowed, each month you would pay back 9% of your income over the threshold.The repayment of loans is administered through the tax system and the responsibility of administering repayments is shared between the Student Loans Company and Her Majesty?s Revenue & Customs (HMRC).?The Student Loans Company undertakes the account maintenance and communication with borrowers who are repaying their loans.?
Collection is taken through the PAYE system with HMRC liaising with employers or the account holder (if self-employed) who will take repayments from taxable earnings and then allocate the amount to the loan account. There is more information available about repaying a student loan at www.slc.co.uk Where can I find more info? There?s lots of additional help and information about all aspects of student finance available. You can use our Student Finance Calculator to get an estimate of the type of student finance you might be entitled to.? Don?t forget the more accurate the info you enter the more realistic the estimate we?ll give you. There?s also lots of quick guides and information available on our dedicated Student Finance Zone at The Student Room as well as a live Q&A surgery every Wednesday where one of our expert advisers will answer your questions.Source: http://ucasonline.blogspot.com/2013/03/student-finance-essential-advice-on.html
