Can I still get financial support if I am on temporary leave?
Depending on the scenario, yes you can. Let your School and Student Finance know as soon as you know you are taking a break and they will be able to advise you.
If you leave permanently, your Student Finance will stop.
Have a look at the University Financial Assistance Fund, which is there to help students struggling with money.
