ELQ Exempt Course - Student Finance how?

Hi all!
I am a career changer looking to apply for my second degree (either foundation or BA) in an unrelated subject area to my first. I am looking at Animal Science courses - I have checked and they are coded CAH-06.1 which I am under the belief is an ELQ Exempt qualification if studied Part-Time and therefore I would be eligible for some funding (despite having already achieved a BA qualification).
I am hoping to be able to apply and study as soon as possible. I was wondering - how do I apply for student finance for the part time ELQ exempt course.
When I log into student finance, part-time options only exist for the year 2022-2023 - nothing for this year or next?
Do I apply through the same process, or do I need to use an alternative process? Also - do I apply for the course first (at risk of not knowing my finances?) or do I apply for student finance first and then apply for my course.
Thank you so much for supporting me with this

Hi Claire,
I have checked the codes and it is an exempt course, however when I go through student finance it says im ineligible for finance and says my application will be deleted? Please can you advise how I can apply? It allows me with another university course (unfortunately its not within travelling distance) as I wanted to check, but for some reason not this one. Does it still apply to foundation degree courses or only undergraduate. I really would like to study at this particular centre.
