As title, going back to uni as a mature student (24 baby) to get my degree (long story short i dropped out in my 3rd year last time)

I borrowed money from my self employed tax account to buy the bike, needs to be paid in October and i dont think il have the money by then, so will have to sell it and buy something cheaper

was thinking a 750 srad?

i will need about £800-1k in my pocket after selling the 03 B1

any ofther suggestions?

Cheers

I reckon you may not dont have to if the reasons are purely financial. I recently left uni and since sold the bike but had one for most of uni.

As your 24 you may be entitled to a lot of free money as its either 45 or 25 you are classed as independant so you household income will be just you. This may give you access to income access grants which will get you an additional ~£2750 grant per year and a bursary from your university of £500-3000 (e.g. Bath is £1500).

Lovely bike btw though!

its my second stab at uni so not sure of what im entitled to? had 2 letters each contradicting the other, one says no loan entitlement, the other says sign here and return to recieve your loan haha

going to throw the other one away

But i still have some money to pay back by october however, hence hte reason for getting a slightly cheaper bike

and thankyou!

Oh noes I mentioned uni in a uni thread giving someone some advice that could potentially make them £1000's better off if they didnt realise they were entited to loans. Must be more carefull Rolling Eyes

I dont know the specifics but def worth a call to the student loan company to see if you can get them, worst they can say is no for the grants Thumbs Up

cool, will look into it 2moro and hopefully wont be on hold for 30mins again before i decided to put the phone down!

but yeh, any suggestions for a bike that would put about 1k in my pocket after my B1 goes?

how are the 600 srads? By looking at them i feel i may as well be looking at 750's for the same money

well like said, its a grudging sale id rather not make, its a mint bike with spanky expensive tyres just fitted the other week so to me thats what its worth right now

but i understand its at the upper scale, and in any case this isnt a sell thread either
