Hertfordshire Extended Degree

Heyy, is anyone doing/done the extended degree in science at Hertfordshire Uni??
I wanted to ask, will I still be able to get student loans (maintenance) with this course?
Also, is it still possible to apply to other universities through UCAS with this degree or only Hertfordshire?
Thank you!

Omggg thats great!! Ahh i see, yeah for me West Herts is the closet so it should be an easy commute. What course are you thinking of progressing onto? (im doing pharmacy). I've tried contacting the uni but do you know if we can apply to other unis with the extended degree or is it just for Hertfordshire?

Hi yeah you can switch. You just need to email the unis you wanna apply to and see if they accept the course and then apply via UCAS

Yeah I did, I’m transferring going to reading this year. I applied through UCAS and the staff at west Herts are super helpful so they can even help with that. The grade requirements are also the same as Herts so you just need to pass the interview and get the grades. Super doable!
