| Re: SNP scrap student endowment fee
i'd be very intrigued to hear where my dad actually got this information. all i can find online is info saying the vote is due to take place, nothing about the motion being passed.
i, like ruth, have just found religion. |

The decision means that current students and those who graduated last year will not now have to pay the one-off charge, which is set at £2,289.
| Now, I graduated first in 2005, then from my Masters in 06, so does this mean I won't have to pay it? I've just lumped it onto my student loan, so i'm paying it off with the rest of it, but 2Gs off my total loan would be a massive bonus.

I'm not earning above the threshold and have deferred repayment again, but I'd rather not have to pay 'em off at all. | |

I believe you guys will still have to pay your loans off, plus the graduate endowment. Looks like it only affects the next lot of graduating students. I.e. me. 
Sorry guys.
