Lilac Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 Facing the issue we were slightly dreading of how to face the financial situation if DD were to be offered a place at LSC! From the open day we realise you can only get a £6000 instead of the £9000 to cover the degree tuition costs. Not sure about the living costs were regular students such as older non DD get a second loan. Does anyone have experience of this? We understood that other finance could be available to bridge the gap, but being as this is means test we always miss being entitled but not by much, and still have a mortgage and other daughter to finance. Don't suppose anyone knows if there can be any other ways round this? So hard as know DD would love to do this course with it keeping more genres of dance open for longer, and obviously did really well as offered a place without a recall audition! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Interested Parent Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 Gosh didn't realise the fees were so high at LSC! £13,770 and only able to get a 6k loan! I was sure it was around 9k last year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miracle Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 Been about that figure for a few years. Ballet West used to be 9 now 10. So 4 to find. There are 2k scholarships available at Lsc.x 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lilac Posted February 25, 2017 Author Share Posted February 25, 2017 Are these scholarships on ability rather than means tested do you know? X Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miracle Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 Not sure if on talent or not but still leaves £5770. Maintenance loan can be applied for from Student finance but is income linked.x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anna C Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 Goodness, that's a big shortfall! Congratulations to your dd though, Lilac! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lilac Posted February 25, 2017 Author Share Posted February 25, 2017 Yes it is a big shortfall, wondering how people afford to go there! Such a shame as she loves their mixed genre teaching. Thanks Anna. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
