Student finance for second degree??

I dropped out of university in second year after repeating a year. (So total 3 years)
I was at uni 2020 and 21 so the covid years.
I’m really keen to get a degree in a different subject, but I was wondering how I can do this. I know I’m entitled to one more year of funding. But would I have to self fund the other two years?
What course do you want to study?

Full time and potentially a healthcare related course. Considering radiography/ paramedic science.

Hi there,

Radiotherapy is one of our Allied Health Profession Courses which is classed as an exception course. Therefore if you already hold a degree or have previous study, you will still be eligible to access the full package of funding. Paramedic Science isn't an exception course so previous study will be taken into account.

Thanks,
Claire

Thanks, would you be able to give me a list of all healthcare related courses exempt?
I was also wondering whether paramedic science will ever be on this list?
