the maintenance and bursarys are not a given you have to apply to separate bodies for them.
When I was at uni the was a grand total of 3 people out of 145 doing an engineering degree who managed to get the additional maintenance. And nobody managed to get the bursary. The 3 that got the additional maintenance were all disabled.
Post uni and having to deal with what I thought was a genuine case due to 2 children and his wife being unable to work because of 2 young kids and a demented parent living with them the engineer student got knocked back because he had good earning potential during the holidays.
So unless you are a one legged transsexual lesbian don't bank on either maintenance or bursary's.
Its a limited fund which has to be applied for every year and some years you might get yes and some you might get no. Banking on either in your financial planning would be a very grave mistake what ever these marketing types tell you.
