Anything other than a maintenance grant?..

    Hey there,

    I've been accepted for the Maintenance Grant and the special sum of money also.

    Thing is, I'm studying in the UK for my second year but I won't have any cash to start me off with getting a house, food for 1 - 2 months and bills as the grant usually comes fairly late.

    Is there anything I can get as I don't really want to get a loan as I already will have to owe about 4000 pound when I finish for fees and thats a lot of money for me.

    I can't really ask my parents for cash neither as they're struggling themselves.

    Thanks.

    A loan from the credit union is kind of the only option

    In Irish Unis they have the student assistance fund but it may be completely different in UK so maybe contact your Uni and ask if they anything similar

    It was so much easier to blame it on Them. It was bleakly depressing to think that They were Us. If it was Them, then nothing was anyone's fault. If it was us, what did that make Me? After all, I'm one of Us. I must be. I've certainly never thought of myself as one of Them. No one ever thinks of themselves as one of Them. We're always one of Us. It's Them that do the bad things.
