St Andrew's funding form

Bit of a niche one, this. DS has applied to St A's and has an email encouraging applications for funding and scholarships (which I'm sure all applicants get). There are various forms, one of which is a 'funding profile' (ie 'how much do your parents earn?'). It's not clear from the email whether he should still be filling that one in if he's not applying for funding. Anyone know? I don't want them to have to chase for it, but also don't want to cause confusion by filling it and then not applying for a bursary. Of course he can email them to check, but I thought the MN hive mind might know!

I would say common sense would dictate that no, you don't fill in a form about your parents income if you're not applying for some kind of grant or scholarship.

We’ve just got this.You fill the form in and it then takes you through to a series of funds and scholarships that you might be eligible for, by course. I think it is meant to filter some out but it just lists all of them and it’s obvious when you click on them whether your household income is low enough to qualify. If not then that’s it done.
