It’s possible to borrow a smaller amount to cover tuition fees or living costs. There is no minimum loan request amount and you can amend the amount requested, providing it's not less than has already been paid to you, up to one month before the end of the academic year.</li> </ul> <p>The loan will be paid directly into your bank account in three instalments.
