Ah. We misunderstand each other.

I am responding to BBC Scotland has seen an email in which the university tells one second-year student it "may be more appropriate for you to suspend your studies or withdraw".

If they want me to drop out of my second year rather than find me somewhere to live, then the first instalment of my investment has been wasted and should be refunded.

OK, maybe I want them to transfer my course credits to a uni in another city and to claim for living costs, so maybe I shouldn't just accept such an offer ...

However taking the first payment for a course of study means that the uni should take responsibility for ensuring that I have accommodation throughout the period of study.
