Degree Apprentiships when I already have a degree?

So, I finished my degree a few months ago and I've been job hunting since. I made a serious mistake with my degree, hated it and don't want to go on to do my masters in it. I have been unable to find a job and I feel like a huge failure.

However, I have found an apprentiship that I am interested in and they help you work towards a degree to. But...do they fund this? As I already have a degree I can't get student finance, so if i wanted to go back to university I would have to pay myself and that isn't possuble. But through an apprentiship am I still expected to pay for it or do they?

*Also looking at options for college level not just degree*

Thanks for any help.

It really depends on the company. For some companies degree programme, they don't mind if you have a degree as far as it's not a similar subject as the programme your applying for, while some straight out say you must not have a qualification of the same level or higher.

What job sector are you looking at applying for?
