If I take a second Cert HE course, am I still eligible for tuition fee funding?

Hi there,

Just to give some context, I am currently a mature student studying an online distance learning Psychology BSc at Essex online university. At this moment I am in the CertHE stage, and I am considering changing my course to computer science.

I received student funding for my tuition fees, as well as a small amount of disability equipment allowance, as I am diagnosed ADHD.
My question is, if I decide to only complete the CertHE stage of my psychology BSc, would I then be able to start the computer science BSc and still get my tuition fees paid again?

I would really appreciate some advice on this, as I am currently communicating with the Essex online support team on the best steps forward for my studies.

Looking forward to hearing from you, thanks in advance.

Hi Zak. Is your current course part time? Would you then be starting the Computer Science BSC as a Full Time course? Thanks, David
