Default Re: Can you have more than 1 student loan?
Ok these are just some PMs i had, so nothing concrete:

Hi

I spoke to LEA on Thursday - they first said that I wasn't entitled to a 2nd loan. However, about an hour later the lady from the LEA called me back and said that I was entitled. Yippee!!!! Apparently under the Education Regulations Act 2007 anyone who is entitled to an NHS Bursary can get a student loan albeit at a reduced rate - for London Unis this currently is £3180.
and:

I have had a response from Alan Johnson (Health Secretary) today - the link stating that WE ARE ENTITLED!!!!! to a reduced rate loan is:http://www.direct.gov.uk/en/Educatio...ts/DG_10034874
hope the person who sent me them doesn't mind me posting, but if it helps.....


I'm going to ring my LEA tomorrow and will post back with what they say (if i get through to someone)
