Postgraduate Loan??

Hi guys,
I wanted to ask whether anyone would know the answer to this.
I first went to uni in 2018 studying MPharm that was a course for 4 years, got student finance loans funding for the first year and dropped out as it wasn't right for me.
I then took a gap year and went back into uni in 2020, then studied my 3 year BSc and graduated this summer!

Want to go back to uni to study MA Law conversion course in January, but not sure whether I can get the postgrad loan funding for it?

Hi there,

If you have received Postgraduate funding before, you won't be eligible for this again without Compelling Personal Reasons (CRP) evidence. The evidence needs to confirm the CPR reasons why you didn't complete your previous course. The evidence would be a letter on headed paper signed/stamped and dated from someone in profession i.e. Doctor/lecturer who knows the CPR. They must know how it affected your studies and the dates it affected you. Once received it will be up to the assessor if this will be accepted or not.

Thanks,
Claire

Hi Calum,

It was a 4 year degree, but I studied the first year of it therefore I'm not sure whether that counts as Postgraduate funding?

Thank you!

Thank you Graeme!
It's an MA Law (SQE1) course at University of Law.
