- Important changes have been made to the student loan and allowance system. Please double check with Studylink and/or read the information provided for students on their website. You may not be eligible for a loan if you don’t meet the new Studylink performance criteria, so it is important to check your eligibility.
- Apply for your student loan via the Studylink website as they administer the student loan system.
- Studylink recommends you apply for your loan as soon as possible, even if you’re still deciding what you’re going to study.
