    You probably will not be eligible for a grant again until you start a level 8 course

    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.

    If you had informed them halfway through the year that you dropped out then you would have been eligble for a grant for a plc but seeing as you took money you didnt deserve I doubt you will get it now
