Hi there. I cannot seem to find a course with this name on our database. Do you have a course code? Can you confirm if it's full time or part time, and how many years will it be? Thanks, Leah.

Hi there,

I think I've found the course here: on our database it's showing as:

MSc Mental Health (Youth) FT

So, that means you should be fine to apply for funding.

Last of all, when you plan to start this course?

Thanks, Graeme

Hi there,

I have just checked the course details on our database and as this would be your 2nd master course you would not be eligible for funding for a 2nd course. When you left your 1st course did you not receive a qualification and did you have Compelling Personal Reasons as to why you left the course?

Thanks, Drew

Hi there,

The allied to medicine exception courses are for undergraduate courses and not postgraduate courses. What would your compelling personal reasons be for your original postgraduate course be?

Thanks, Drew

Hi Drew ,thanks.I saw someone on this forum with a similar concern and they were told they would still be able to do an msc in Nursing despite having a masters in a different area 🙂.My compelling reasons include bereavement and health issues.Thanks

Hi Mk lutra,

Postgraduate Nursing, Postgraduate Midwifery and Postgraduate Allied Health Professional (AHP) Courses will be exempt from previous study and ELQ rules so if you have studied another postgraduate course in the past you will be eligible for funding and will not have to provide Compelling Personal Reasons evidence

Thanks,
Calum
