Response

Thank you for your request under the Freedom of Information (Scotland) Act 2002 (FOISA) for data on the student loan payments that SAAS administer on behalf of the Student Loans Company from 2013.

Please note SAAS only assess the loan applications; it is the Student Loans Company who pay them out.

Please also note that whilst SAAS pay out bursaries/grants, we are only providing the information in relation to loans as requested.

I have attached a separate document that details the loan rates for the relevant years 2013-2014 to 2024-2025.

If you require anything more specific in relation to monthly loan payments, you will need to contact the Student Loans Company direct.

We will complete the review in accordance with FOISA as soon as possible, and not later than 20 working days from the day following the date we receive your review request.
