How would you like to make a quick repayment?

If you're making a voluntary repayment, it's important to consider the following:

  • Whilst you may choose to make voluntary repayments towards your student loan, there is no obligation to do so.
  • If you do not expect to fully repay your outstanding balance during the term of the loan you should carefully consider whether it's appropriate to make voluntary repayments because any outstanding balance is written off at the end of the loan term.
  • You should consider your personal and financial circumstances and how these may change in the future prior to making a voluntary repayment.
  • If you are unsure about your decision to make voluntary repayments, you should seek professional advice from a financial advisor. SLC are unable to provide financial advice or recommendations.

To help with your decision, you can read more about how repayment works (opens in a new tab).

Any repayment you make in addition to those taken through your salary or Self Assessment in the UK or to meet your schedule if you're overseas is a voluntary repayment. A voluntary repayment is non-refundable.
