Nursing and Midwifery

I already have a Bsc Hons.
Am I able to access student loans as normal? Or is this restricted as I already have a degree? I cant find any accurate information online.
TIA
For a nursing or midwifery degree? What subject is your BSc? Are you currently working in either nursing or midwifery?

Nursing and midwifery courses are exception degrees so you should be eligible for full undegraduate funding (both tuition fee and maintenance loans). Applications for SFE open in March. If you study at a uni in England, you would also be able to apply to the NHS Learning Support Fund for the additional annual training grant, placement expenses, etc.

I've got a bachelors degree also and have just firmed my place for mental health nursing. I called student finance and they confirmed what the comment above said 🙂
