Student Finance Help?

Is there a max you can get from SFE in one year? I started a full time course in September 2023, and have gone through until now where i have decided to leave the course and switch courses. I will be switching to part time student finance and doing an online distance learning course. My chosen course has intakes in July and October, and i have been offered both dates to start but i wasn't sure if i would get funded for starting in July as i have already had some finance this academic year?
Is it also correct that they do not take my previous full time study into account when considering me for part time funding, as in it doesnt matter that i've already had funding
Thanks!

Hi there,
When you're a part-time student you have a maximum of 16 years of funding to claim. Just to check, did you gain a qualification from your full-time study?
Thanks, Graeme

No i haven’t gained any qualifications, i left my course a few weeks ago but wasn’t too sure if i’d get the funding for the July intake as i’ve had funding this year?

You can still apply for funding for June intake, can you try doing this online now?
We may need to get you to complete a paper application is the system says you already have an active 24/25 application.
Thanks, Graeme

i can’t seem do it online, so i’m assuming paper application is the only way! is there a deadline for doing this, and which paper form do i need? Thank you!!
