    I applied online for the grant, not expecting to get anything but I got a letter the other day saying it has progressed to the next step and that I had to send in loads of documents.

    As I've got to this stage, what are the chances I'll get something?

    It all depends on your parents earnings. Remember my friend once didn't get it as his parents total gross income was 100 over the allowed amount!

    Here's a link to the citizens information page. Hope it helps :)

    See going by the threshold levels, I shouldn't get it, but I applied for it anyway and got the letter. Hmm, suppose I just have to sit tight!

    Not going to lie to you. It's one of the few genuine perks to being poor! :p Cause them fees are the biggest killer of them all!!!
