The Student Room Group

Funding scotland

I have a question that I hope someone will be able to answer.

I am a mature student who left school with lots of nat 5’s and no highers. Recently I have started looking into studying again and note that I will need to go the college route to get into uni (HNC/access course)

I get confused with the whole eligibility as it mentions first degrees and up to 5 years but basically I would need to move to a city to do college and uni.

Would SAAS fund me for the college qualification that i would need to get into 2/3rd year of uni and then the uni course itself?

TIA

The information on Glasgow Uni's website seems to imply that you can get some funding for an Access course:
