    Anyone know exactly how long you can get away without paying them, it doesn't look like ill have the cash in time an am just wondering how long Ill be able to put it off for. Whatever happened last year my fees weren put through at registration and I got an angry letter two weeks before the end or term saying that if i didn't pay up I wouldn't get my exam resluts, reckon my chances are good of doing that this year?

    Extremely unlikely. Usually you cannot register until your fees have been paid.

    Also if you pay late I believe they can charge some kind of lateness fee, which is sizable enough to be annoying.

    I once managed, inadvertently (mix-up on my part re: transferring in, long story), to do the same as the OP - get through the entire year without paying the registration fee, but having registered and re-registered during the year. Then letter about withholding results. No late charge either - there's a late charge for registering late though.

    Wouldn't recommend it though - especially not this year with that lunatic-high registration fee.

    If you can't afford to raise the money for the registration fee, surely that implies that you qualify for the maintenance grant, which covers the registration fee.

    I was a little wary of this myself so I rang Trinity up, and I was told that whether you've gotten any sort of confirmation about that grant or not, if you're sure your eligible, send along that form in the Trinity booklet that was sent out (GF1 I think) and the department pays them.

    But they can refuse your registering if you haven't paid up in time...
    (I realise this didn't happen to you, but it doesn't mean it's the standard)
