Find out how students can check their payments or track the progress of their application and estimated review date.
The start of the academic year is one of the busiest times at SLC. First term Maintenance Loan payments have been sent to students starting their studies throughout September and these will continue throughout the Autumn.
SLC phone lines may be busy at times and that’s why students are reminded of their self-service options in their online accounts. Whether they are shortly receiving their first payment or going through the application process, they can get the information they need quickly by logging in to their account.
Getting Paid
Students who need to check when they will be paid can check their payment schedule and status by signing in to their online account.
It’s easy to check the payment status, just follow these steps:
- Sign in to the online account at www.gov.uk/student-finance-register-login.
- Select ‘Undergraduate student finance applications’.
- Select the application for the payments to be checked.
- Under the heading ‘Manage your student finance’, select ‘View your payments’.
Checking the application status
For those students who are still in the application process, or have yet to apply for their finance, there is some useful information available in their online account.
Checking online will show:
- The progress of the application
- If there’s anything else that is needed
- The next estimated review date of the application
If there’s no estimated review date
If there’s no estimated review date showing, students can check the current timescales page instead. The page is updated weekly and provides a guideline of when the application will be reviewed.
