I just signed up to study BS Psychology at the Open University, October 7th 2017. I haven't done any university study before, this will be my first time. I'm just wondering whether I will be eligible for Student Finance and also if Student Finance will cover the full 120 credits for the first year.

Thanks.
The OU is classed as part-time study (even if you do 120 credits a year), but part-time students now have access to tuition-fee loans, so yes, you would be eligible for student finance. You won't be able to get a maintenance loan though.
