Repaying Student Loans Scenario 1: Student debt £20,000. Your earnings £31,000. Your annual repayment is £475. Scenario 2: Student debt £50,000. Your earnings £31,000. Your annual repayment is £475. Scenario 3: Student debt £1 billion. Your earnings £31,000. annual repayment is £475. Students should see this as a 9% higher tax rate ‘Student loans' is a misnomer - elsewhere similar schemes are called a 'graduate contribution' system. We should call it this too.’ Martin Lewis, Money Saving Expert @EHUoutreach
