Hmm i just started my first year at uni and i have a loan of 3,000 pounds for the university fee
which is 3,000 x 3 =9,000 this is my debt at the end of the 3 years
i also receive a 3,00 grant whichi dont have to repaywhich totals to 9,000
now i dont think im going to pass my first year i think i will fail, so i will re enrole again and start fresh, now i know this will mean
12k of debt, but what about the grant will i get another 3,000 for the extra year?
anybody had a similar problem
thanks

well im not gonna quit im gonna see my results but i recken i will fail i have 4 exams in jan and i havent a clue what im doing, im gonna try hard revise every day but. if i fail when i get my results, ill go to the universirty and re enrole again
i wont take a year out
anyyy one please?
From what I can understand if you're doing the extra year for a good reason you'll get it funded, if you're not you won't. BUT what a good reason is is a little tricky to fathom.
no im doing computing, and i think i will fail so i wont be able to carry onto then ext year, so i might just go for another course, or restart again
I'm getting an extra year funded because I had to drop out of this one through ill health, I know someone else who has had his retake year funded because he tried but stuff just didn't click in time for the exams and he struggled with the transitition to living away from home. Both our course directors recommended us to our LEAs as deserving the extra funding.
In your position I would be working my little socks off rather than thinking about retaking the year. Wait 'til you've failed now and failed your resits this year before worrying about anything else. In the meantime work work work!
hmm so they wont fund a retake year, what if i decided to do another course
They may well fund another course, but it's not definite.
