Student finance help

Hi I have applied for student finance 2024/2025 years I previously studied and withdrawn in the last semester. I was been told I could only be founded exceptional course such medicine nurse etc.
I been accepted for Pharmacology but with foundation year because I never did modules such medicine, biology or science. So I had to make a founding application for this ,does anyone know if pharmacology is an exception course and if SFE will found my course as the uni told me until have had not acceptance of student finance I won't be enrolled to the course. Which is already started because It was trough clearing I missed already several lesson due to this. The previous university hasn't confirmed yet my withdraw to student finance and I'm waiting my new application is in process so do you know when it will likely completed and will I be paid the tuition fees for pharmacology

Thanks
Hi Student729s,

Pharmacology is not an exception course. What is your previous study? Do you already hold a degree?

Thanks,

Hi Calum I don't hold a degree only a foundation year and I was been told they will only pay two years unless I study an exception course.
