Funding and Time Commitments MSc IR LSE

I've been given an unconditional offer to study the MSc IR at LSE, starting later this year. I live in Brisbane, Australia and have recently finished two undergrad degrees: a BMathematics and a BA (Hons) majoring in IR.

I want to know two things:

(1) what is the time commitment? I am used to spending all of my time studying and working, but want to make sure I will actually be able to afford the degree and accomodation. I do not come from a family who can loan me any $ towards costs of any sort.

(2) what is the funding commitment? I know the basics (i.e., the cost of the degree and how expensive London is, but I haven't lived in the UK since I left Great Yarmouth in 2002 (I am now 24). What are day to day expenses like? Will I be able to manage a part/full time job while studying (I am assuming definitely not full time).

Thank you for reading this far...
