We’ll stop any future payments and work out how much student finance you’re entitled to. This means you might have been paid too much student finance and have to pay some of it back before you’re earning over the repayment threshold.
If you suspend your course because of an illness, you may be able to receive continued student finance payments for an extra 60 days. Your university will need to notify us that your suspension is related to an illness. You may also be asked to submit evidence of this.
You can claim for Financial Hardship support if you’ve had a reassessment of your entitlement and the change will put you at a financial disadvantage. You may be able to receive continued student finance payments during your period of suspension.
