Quick details...
Im a nursing student,
I receive a bursary every month that goes straight back out on my rent,
I receive a loan payment every 4 months however the last one was written off by my deposit for my house,
I can't get a job because of the un-sociable hours of my placements and Hospital bank work isn't an option as they're not taking on 1st year students,
I've applied 3 times for hardship funding from my uni, all of which have been rejected as Im not from another country(what a joke), not disabled (wouldnt be a very good nurse then would i?), and don't have any dependant children (coz why would I when im young and not married),
I can't get anymore from student loans or Bursary,
Lost my dad last year (to the day) so haven't got 'parental backing',
Can't get jobseekers seeing as I do get monthly money,
Can't get a bank account with a large overdraft due to my bad credit score...

ANY SUGGESTIONS VERY MUCH WELCOME AS IM GOING MAD WITH TRYING!!

unfortunately, if you get the bursary you are not usually eligible for financial help from the uni. In my day, you couldn't even get a student loan if you got a bursary
Not about this thread, but I just wanted to say ((♥)) to chrissa and clipclop, I can't believe that it's a year already.
Depends on how broad minded you are,
but what about chatlines ? You can do that around you shifts .
Thanks for remembering boxtops. How kind you are.
In some ways it's easier because you are not always thinking...."this time last year he was still here".

Thank you again.

Aw thank you Boxtops, very sweet of you to remember. Tha's the other sad thing, I know my dad would never have sat back and allow me to struggle like this...

Chatlines ? You mean like sordid Chatlines!!? Hmmm... Gut reaction is that id rather drop than go to that kind of level ....
Just qualifying....it was a struggle but i too worked during my 3y nursing course

Good luck xx
Ps: was awful as we weret entitled to anything other than the bursary- i wound up moving back home xxxx
