What is a maintenance loan?<\/h3>\n

The maintenance loan is given to help towards student accommodation<\/a> and living expenses. The amount of loan you receive can depend on your parent\u2019s income. The loan is influenced by your parent\u2019s earnings. Simply put, the higher the family income, the less loan you receive. In this shortfall, parents are expected to help cover costs which the maintenance loan can\u2019t.<\/p>\n

You must provide household income if you apply for the full maintenance loan. You\u2019ll need to provide your household income for the previous tax year to your course study year. For example, if you are planning to attend university for the academic year 2024\/25, you\u2019ll need to provide household income from 2022 to 2023.<\/p>\n
