Rationale of plan

The plan for these important dates is so I do not lose track of what I need to have done for my
university application. The most important dates initially were not to take too long in completing my
first draft of the statement so it could be checked and any amendments made. I also needed to have
my chosen courses in place early so I could work on my statement and match that to my choices.
The deadline for the submission of my application was 31/01/24 so I needed to make sure I did not
miss this and was able to submit the application a few days before.

The next major dates are to ensure I do not miss the deadline for applying to Student Finance
England for my tuition fees to be paid and to apply for a Maintenance Loan if required. I do not plan
on moving home at least for my first year at uni so I will not need to apply for student acoomodation
as yet.
