Repayment information

Payment is by monthly standing order. 

First monthly repayment is due two months after the course of training is expected to end. If we receive notification from you or we become aware that you are no longer attending the course we may give you 30 days written notice to nominate a new date on which repayments shall begin.

Repayment period

Loans are available for repayment over one to five years (12, 18, 24, 30, 36, 48, 54 or 60 monthly repayments).
