Can I apply for a doctoral loan if my funding runs out mid PhD

Hello,

the university have suggested that they may be able to offer me a partly funding PhD place (for 1 year). Then I can reapply for funding. However, if that application is not successful would I be able to apply for a postgraduate, doctoral loan for the remaining years when I won't be receiving any other funding?
thanks

Hi,
In order to determine your eligibility, please confirm:

1. Which university and course you are looking to start your studies with?
2. How old you are.
3. Your nationality, current status and time spent within the UK.
4. Any previous study and qualifications you may hold.
Thanks, Isaac
