STUDENT LOANS

2015

If you are a home student and have applied for a Student Loan we need to inform the Student Loans Company (SLC) that you have completed enrolment and are in attendance before they release the spring term loan to your bank account via the BACS payment system.

Where possible the process of confirming your enrolment to the SLC is completed automatically as part of online enrolment.

Please note that non- UCAS applicants and PGCE students will need to be manually confirmed via the Gateway Desk in the Roland Levinsky Building (see overleaf for details).

Automated confirmation of enrolment to the SLC

When you complete online enrolment, provided we have all the required information, an automated message will be sent to the SLC informing them you have completed enrolment.

You will be notified if this was successful in the email you receive when you complete online enrolment. This means you do not need to have your payment advice letter scanned on campus.

Please note that the automatic confirmation will fail if you have not been able to input your SLC Student Support Number in section 6 of online enrolment. Your Student Support Number is recorded underneath the barcode on your UniversityPayment Advice form issued by Student Finance.

Self-service option

If the SLC enrolment confirmation process is not completed as part of online enrolment,there is a self-service option available to you.

The SLC Confirmation application is on the e@dmin portal, which is available via the My Edesk menu on the student portal. Full details on how to do this can be found here:

Manual confirmation of enrolment to the SLC

If having tried both of the options overleaf and you are still having trouble, please come and see the Student Funding Unit staff situated on the Gateway Desk in the Roland Levinsky Building who will be happy to help with a manual confirmation.

You will need to bring yourPayment Advice from the Student Loans Company so that we can scan the details onto the SLC database. The Payment Adviceis page 5 of the Financial Assessment letter sent to you by the Student Loans Company. The barcode on the top of this document is the one we will scan.

Please note that the scan will fail ifyou have not completed online enrolment
