Student Finance at the Open University

Hello. I cannot find an answer anywhere.

if I do my third year at the open university (rather than Kent which is where I am now) will I get the same student finance I have been getting?
I WILL BE DOING IT FULL TIME

I do also get DSA

Don't quote me on it but I'm sure when you apply for finance you will have to apply for part time finance even though you are planning on studying full time. As open university is always classed as part time study. You will still be funded fully given that you've only used 2 years of full time student finance.

No, you won't. You will get your tuition fees funded, but you won't get any maintenance payments, so you will need to fund living yourself.

You can apply for DSA when studying with the OU.
