Hi, Does anyone have any advice for funding medicine as a second degree? (I have applied for GEM courses, but have an offer for an undergrad course, and am not sure yet if I will get an offer for a graduate course)

Hey, congrats on the offer!
You’ll get a maintenance loan that you can use to pay for your uni fees. Then you’ll have to fund living costs, so maybe getting a part time job/ savings to cover that part. It’s doable, loads of people I know have done it. The fact that undergrad med is not accelerated allows for you to work more.

Hi! thank you ) Yes I have been researching and I think that is what I will have to do, it will be a bit tight but as you said, it is doable! Still waiting on a couple more responses for grad entry though, so fingers crossed!
