Sam, i see nobody has answered your query, i will try,

How long is the course you intend to take? is it 14.500pounds for 1 year or the total course, normally 4 years, and 10,000 to live on, again, is that for the total course or one year?

For the first year, you can live in the Halls of Residence, top of the Old Kent Road going into London, you maybe sharing with 5/6/7 other students, but its cheap, 2nd year, i think you have to find your own living place, again, sharing to cut costs, I know this because my daughter went to Kings and got a Masters degree in Pharmacy after 4 years of hard study,

Perhaps your Auntie could arrange a monthly debit to your bank which is accesabile in the UK? and i really think you have to pay for the course before you start, so auntie would have to transfer funds to Kings first,

and your "living money" accesible via ATM,

Good Luck,,

This link provides details of the financial requirements for a level 4 Student Visa, it is self explainatory but, it seems, set in stone, it would seem that you need to be able to prove the money is in your bank account: http://www.ukvisas.gov.uk/resources/en/docs/marketing/tier4maintenanceguide

I don't know how old you are, is your Aunt your guardian? probably not, but if so it would seem that her birth certificate, family registration or court document and a letter of financial consent is required

You might also want to have a read throught the UKBA guidance http://www.ukvisas.gov.uk/en/howtoapply/infs/inf29pbsstudent

Sorry if I am simply duplicating what you already know.

To prevent your mom's sister from sponsoring you, they may need to update the immigration rules further.

However, if this is an entry clearance application, then if you are refused because of not complying with the guidance, then you have an AR and not full rights of appeal. So, it may be better to comply with the guidance.
