Overview

We're seeking your views on keeping the student loan repayment threshold at £21,000 for 5 years.

 

 

Why your views matter

 

We are consulting to gather views on a proposal to keep the student loan repayment threshold at the same level for 5 years. This new proposal was announced in the Budget on 8 July. The government wants to ensure higher education remains open and affordable to students, graduates and taxpayers in the long term.
