Starting my 2nd degree, can i still get Student loan??

Hi,

I will be starting my second (Ba) degree in sept 06......

The first degree that i did, i found that futher on in the course it wasnt what i actually wanted to do, but i was so far in....i thought to myself, if i leave now, all i would leave with was debt! So i decided to finish the degree and come out with something, other than debt.

But now i have got onto a degree programme that i really want to do....will there be problems or limits to the amount i can take out on a student loan...??

As mentioned before I have already taken out a loan before for the first degree which i did, and havent paid any off any yet, as i havent earned over the £15,000.

Will they let me take out another??........or are there restrictions??...


Would appreciate any advice..

Thanks

only if your second degree leads to a professional qualification e.g. law, architecture, medicine, physio etc.................if not then no

The degree is Social Work....does that count?

i'm on my second degree also- yes of course you get a loan. you don't have to start repaying your previous loan until you have completed the 2nd degree or are earning over a certain amount per annum (i think it's 10, 000).
