Can you change Uni after applying for student finance?

Hi,
I am trying to apply to SFE, but cannot get past the course details as correct course is not coming up. I have contacted the Uni to ask them to add the course but they are taking a while to come back to me.
I am aware I am applying late for student finance anyway and this is further delaying my application so I am wondering if there is anyway of applying linked to a different institution but same course and then going back into the application and changing the Uni afterwards?
Just FYI, it has to be the correct course, as I have had student finance before so I am applying for an ELQ exempt course.
Could you please advise?
Thanks

Hey @AbbyG16

I had a lot of issues related to Student Finance in the past. However, it will make it a lot easier if you also try and call and directly contact them as well as the University of choice.

Student Finance always aims to be as helpful as possible, and if you call them directly then I imagine they can inform you to go to the correct places!

Hope this helps - Brandon - Student Rep

Hi AbbyG16,

There is only one course listed for part time psychology at that university - ' Early Childhood and Psychology (Part time).'

Either the course is not funded, or the university needs to update their database with us, so you would be best contacting them again.

Thanks, Clare
