Student finance

You always have to pay back the loan. But the student travel product and grant are a 'performance grant'. They are converted into a gift if you graduate within 10 years. Otherwise you have to repay those as well.Your performance grant becomes a loan in January following your graduation. You will receive a notice about this in January. Only if you obtained a university bachelor or an associate degree, it may take longer for your performance grant to become a loan.Do you fail to meet the nationality criteria for student finance? Then you may still qualify for a tuition fees loan.
