See your monthly repayments, total amount repaid, and whether your loan will be written off before you finish paying.
By Gary · Updated April 2026
If you studied in Scotland with a SAAS loan, you're on Plan 4. It has the highest repayment threshold of any UK undergraduate plan at £33,795 for 2026/27.
The higher threshold means Scottish graduates start repaying later and pay less each month than English graduates on the same salary. Plan 4 loans are written off after 30 years.
| Plan | Threshold | Rate | Write-off |
|---|---|---|---|
| Plan 4 (Scotland) | £33,795 | 9% | 30 years |
| Plan 1 | £26,900 | 9% | 25 years |
| Plan 2 | £29,385 | 9% | 30 years |
| Plan 5 | £25,000 | 9% | 40 years |
| Postgraduate | £21,000 | 6% | 30 years |
