Written off?

Your loan will be written off after 40 years. At your current salary, you won't repay it in full โ€” and that's fine. The remaining balance is cancelled with no penalty.

How UK Student Loan Repayments Work

You repay 9% of everything you earn above ยฃ27,295/year. Below that threshold, you pay nothing. Repayments are deducted automatically through PAYE โ€” you never have to make a manual payment.

The loan is written off after 40 years regardless of the remaining balance. For many graduates, especially on Plan 2, the loan functions more like a graduate tax than a traditional debt.
