.Remove or lower the age for Student Finance Independence

Petition Details

Remove or lower the age for Student Finance Independence to 16.

Additional Information

At age 16 you can get a job and move out and yet Student finance will only allow you to apply independently if you are over 25 years old or estranged from your parents.

I'm 21 years old and I love my parents but I live in another country and work hard to support myself why should I have to incorporate their earnings onto my student finance application because I dont want to be estranged. I alongside many others are being punished for trying to progress ourselves.
