    Does changing courses/universities change the fees
    Hiya, can someone help me please I'm about to throw my laptop out of sheer frustration.

    Right, I am currently studying a full-time HND course at college and am really fed up with it. I plan to complete next year so at least i have that qualification but then i planned on changing to a university in 2012 to complete another full-time course but a BA this time.

    Does anybody know if the 2012 fees will effect me?? I've had a look and the 'student finance quide says that if you are studying for an 'end-on' course- which i'm assuming is like a course that follows on the previous one with no gap- then the fees do not change. But what if you are changing universities as well?!

    gah i've rambled abit but please help!!
