Top Up Degree SFE Funding

Hi there,

So I've just finished a 3 year degree but due to mental health reasons I failed my dissertation causing me to fail my degree. My university has said that I have qualified for a Diploma in higher education. I want to complete a top up degree at a different university so I can have a full honours degree.

Since I have already had 3 years of SFE funding would I be eligible for one further year, I know you get a "gifted" extra year of funding from SFE but I'm not sure if I qualify.

Any help would be amazing.
