FOI_25-111 Student debt
Date of response: 12 May 2025
We have now considered your request of 14 April 2025 for the following information:
Under the Freedom of Information Act, please could I be provided with the total number of students directly indebted to your university?
For example, this could include library fees, accommodation fees, direct loans from your university, outstanding fees after leaving a course and general unpaid fees.
This should exclude maintenance loans and tuition fees as these are government-issued loans.
If possible, could I also be provided with the total financial amount owed to your university?
It would be very much appreciated if this information could be added to the table below:
