Student Loan Company: You only start repaying your loan once you’ve graduated and you’re earning more than £21,000 a year.
After that, you’ll pay back 9% of anything you earn over £21,000. So if you’re earning £26,000 a year, you’ll lose £450 in loan repayments.
That means £37.50 will be deducted each month automatically from your salary if you are earning £26,000 a year.
