Hello, unusual query.
I am due to have a baby at the end of October/beginning of November. While on maternity leave (I've started early, long story) I've been looking into courses I'd like to do when I complete my maternity leave. I already have a degree in Education and a PGCE, but that wasn't right for me and I didn't get QTS. I've since become interested in nutrition, so I called my local university to see what qualifications I'd need to do that in the future.
They ended up sending me an offer for September via email... I couldn't possibly accept could I? Has anyone else done something similar? For background info, my fiancé is in the final year of his studies at the same university, and I will not have a job to return to when the baby is born. We do luckily have access to free childcare. My course involves a foundation year, so the first year is at level 3 standard.
If I were to accept this year, my course fees would be paid and I would receive the NHS bursary. If I applied next year, I would possibly have access to loans but I'd have to pay these back eventually. *
