cute teddies!!!!


I got an email from OU yesterday telling me to apply for student loan, so I printed off the form and filled it in last night and DH will post it today feeling super efficient

 

[Tegans Mama]

I got my email too but I can't decide whether to print the form or wait for it to arrive in the post

 

[vaniilla]

I only read that bit about them posting it after I'd had it all done, I'm too impatient either way to wait

 

[Tegans Mama]

I know I was all ready to steal OH's laptop and print it (I've not connected mine to the printer yet ) when I read it will come through the post too.

 

[vaniilla]

our printer is out of ink so I made dh stay at work longer to print it off, I got him to get 2 copies just incase I made a mistake

 

[Rhi_Rhi1]

I assume it is all done differently now, as i had to fill my FS stuff in months ago and have all ready had it back, i am really confused about how it works now, do u need a loan from the student finance company etc ? good luck with all your forms, i get my self in a right tizzy doing them, i'm such a stress bag lol. x

 

[tallybee]

I would be impatient with getting the forms done too

I can't contain myself, I just got back TMA03 for S366 Evolution.... I must be doing something right I got 96%!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I can't believe it! I have never had so high a score!

 

[vaniilla]

yea its all done through the student finance, it's the same if you were going to a regular university - when student finance have your application you get given a registration number which you give to your university which confirms your payment option, Part time loans have only just happened and you can only do it through paper forms - it's annoying that they don't make the form online for PT too! it would save a lot of time.


Thats a fantastic score Tallybee! you'll have to share your secret with us!!!!!

 

[tallybee]

Thanks hun!

I really wasn't expecting it to be so high at all! It was quite a mammoth TMA... I would probably put it down to anxious perfectionism....

That's a bit pants about finance being paper only for PT. You'd think it'd be better all round to have it online...

[Rhi_Rhi1]

well done :O

 

[Tegans Mama]

Congrats tally

My forms arrived through the post today I've not filled them in yet tho, had a migraine all day

 

[vaniilla]

yay for forms arriving, I hope your migraine goes away soon

I just enrolled on Exploring science (S104) so I'll be doing 120 credits this October it shouldn't be too bad as lo will be going to the childminder, I just need to wait til 3 to call student finance so they can update my details - their computers are down at the moment

 

[Tegans Mama]

I want to do 120 points too. I'm waiting for the ou to get back to me about it, can't fill my form in until they have
