BSc Paramedic science as a second degree

Hi, I was wondering if you could please help me, I have been accepted onto a midwifery course however, I'm still thinking about the paramedic route as it is a passion of mine. I already have another degree, so I was wondering if you can get student loans and maintenance loans for paramedic science if you already have one. I know for midwifery you can however, have been told mixed messages regarding paramedic science. any help is appreciated.

Hi extl1,

Paramedic Science courses are only classed as an exception if the student is entitled to funding from the Ambulance Service Trust. Otherwise, you will not be eligible for funding if you already hold a degree.

Thanks,
Calum

That's a shame, thanks for your response.
