I've got to send this off by the 31st and for some reason (even though my household income is less than £25,000 and I should therefore be entitled to a Maintenance Grant) it only comes up with:

Type Amount requested Amount you may be entitled to
Maintenance Loan Maximum £3,564.00
Tuition Fee Loan Maximum £3,375.00

I don't want to click save and finish in case they're suddenly like "lol wut grant???"

I've literally tried every single ****ing button on their ****ing website and nothing is coming up with the grant.

[Shaun]

I didn't think they did grants anymore, I thought my year (2005) was the last. I believed that they only do the loans now.

[King Gizzard]

this is why I really couldn't be naffed with Uni.

[Shaun]

it's such a piss-poorly laid out website - everything requires opening about 5 tabs and logging in every time, which then takes you back to irrelevant pages... you get lost easily

The Scottish one isn't much better. Student finance is just this huge wall of new information that doesn't sink in at all until you actually start living student life and manage your own finances, even now I still don't fully understand it all, I just do my best to save money where I can (and this month have failed miserably) meh!
