* Earnings, not debts determine repayments. * A student who owes the maximum amount of loan, having studied in London and a student who stayed at home to minimise their loan would end up paying back the same amount if they then went into the same career. * Most graduates will pay off a relatively small amount every month and never pay off the full debt, which is written off after 30 years. THIS IS PART OF THE DEAL – IT’S OK NOT TO PAY OFF THE WHOLE AMOUNT. * It works more like tax than a loan- the more you earn, the more you pay.
