## Post (EN)

If the news this week about student loan reform made you wonder whether to delay applying for university next September, here is the short version most articles do not mention.

If you start a full-time undergraduate course in England in the 2026/27 academic year, you are on Plan 5, not Plan 2. The debate going through MPs and the press is mostly about Plan 2 borrowers who are already repaying. The terms for Plan 5 are already published on GOV.UK and they apply to your application today: a £25,000 repayment threshold, 9% above that, RPI-only interest, and a 40-year write-off.

The bigger risk for an adult applicant is not the loan terms changing. It is missing the September 2026 intake because the news made the decision feel too uncertain, and then waiting another year while childcare, work and life keep moving.

Full breakdown of what is confirmed, what might change, and what to do this month: link in the first comment.

## Post (RO)

Dacă știrile din săptămâna asta despre reforma împrumuturilor studențești te-au făcut să te gândești să amâni aplicarea pentru facultate în septembrie, iată versiunea scurtă pe care majoritatea articolelor nu o menționează.

Dacă începi o licență full-time în Anglia în anul academic 2026/27, ești pe Plan 5, nu pe Plan 2. Dezbaterea care e prin Parlament și prin presă acum e în mare parte despre cei pe Plan 2 care deja rambursează. Termenii pentru Plan 5 sunt deja publicați pe GOV.UK și se aplică la aplicația ta de azi: prag de rambursare £25,000, 9% peste prag, dobândă doar RPI, și ștergere după 40 de ani.

Riscul mai mare pentru un adult nu e că se schimbă termenii împrumutului. E că ratezi intake-ul de septembrie 2026 pentru că știrile au făcut decizia să pară prea incertă, și apoi mai aștepți un an în timp ce vârsta copiilor, jobul și viața merg înainte.

Detalii complete despre ce e confirmat, ce s-ar putea schimba, și ce să faci luna asta: link în primul comentariu.
