First Full time course question

hi all.
u have previously studied with the open university and got a HND (2 years) this is classed as part time and I had a tuition loan.

would I be eligible for tuition or maintenance if I went full time to a university to study? or would it be classed as a second degree?

Hi there, What qualification level would you obtain from studying the full time course? Thanks, Angela

hi, it would be undergraduate full 3 years. I stopped my part time open uni after the 2nd year

Hi fhow13,

Will it be an ordinary degree or an honours degree?

Thanks, Clare

if i wouldnt be eligible are there any exceptions for second degree tuition and maintenance funding

Hi fhow13,

Thank you for confirming. We would take your previous study into account therefore if you were to start a new course, it is likely you would need to self fund the first year Tuition Fees.

The previous study calculation is course length+1 year - minus previous study years. This means that if you were to attend a 3 year course, it would be 3+1-2= 2 years. You can still apply for the Maintenance Loan in year 1, then years 2 and 3 will be fully funded for the Maintenance Loan and Tuition Fee Loan.

Thanks, Clare

does this attachment not mean anything?

how is an honor degree different please
