How to pay back?

You do not have to pay any course fees upfront. You pay back your loan (plus interest) when you have finished your course and start earning more than £27,295 a year. If your income drops below £27,295 – loan repayments stop.
Each month you pay back 9% of any income over £27,295.For example, If you earn £30,000 a year,
£30,000 – £27,295 = £2,7059% of £2,705 = £243.45 (per year)£243.45 /12 = £20.29 (per month)
Your monthly repayments would be £20.29
