Second Masters funding through the OU
Hi. I already hold an MA in English literature. I would like to study environmental science and the Open University shows both their BSc and their Master of Environmental Science are both eligible for second degree funding. I wondered if I'd be eligible for student finance studying the Masters as I already hold a Master's degree or if I should opt for the BSc?

Did you ever get an answer to this in the end? I am in a similar sit but did human geography as my UG. Open Uni says the MEnv is able to get second degree funding but I just got off the phone with SFE and they said that this isn't the case?

Hi
I hope you are well. If you are in England at the moment you would get funding for a second Undergraduate as long as they sit on the specified STEM list . However as far as I can tell you would not get funding for a second Masters
