billycraig Posted March 28, 2009 Report Share Posted March 28, 2009 Hi, As some of you might know I'm currently at uni doing a degree in Physiotherapy. The course is 5 days a week so it limits my time in which I'm able to work with private clients. For some reason students of a NHS/Medical degree only receive a reduced LOAN from the student loan company. We can't really find out why as of yet and as we're a quite a small minority within the university (200 out of 30,000 at nottingham) we're not really being heard. The loan has to be paid back when we finish so its not like we're after a free ride. If you've ever been treated by a grumpy, tired NHS Physio this might be why If you fancy helping us have a little louder voice could you join our petition at Oy Gordon Brown Sort This Out Hopefully a few of you that I've pointed in the right (hopefully) direction won't mind helping.

andy.t Posted March 30, 2009 Report Share Posted March 30, 2009 OK, so bo drinker has convinced me that there could be enough people out there to start a revolution, I feel a song coming on, so the question is how should I start one ? any ideas? don't worry billycraig I will make sure that part of any outcome will make sure students don't have to repay student loans.

I don't mind paying it back, it'd just be nice to get one in the first place but if you insist... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
