My DC is due to start university this October. He received quite a substantial inheritance when he turned 18. This is currently just sitting in his bog standard bank account. Does he have to declare it when applying for maintenance loans? I have googled but can't find an answer. Have spoken to his prospective university who said it makes no difference to his tuition fees. I am a single parent on minimum wage and the inheritance is from his other parent who died a few years ago. Just want to make sure he does everything right. Any advice would be most welcome
