Hi there,

Just to clarify, are you going to study this course part-time? If so, are you doing it distance learning?

Thanks, Graeme

Okay, it's just normally Computing is only an exception when you study it part-time (assuming you already have a degree, that is).

So, do you have a degree at the moment?

Thanks, Graeme

Ok thanks Graeme. Please are you trying to say in order to qualify, you have to do part-time for all the exceptional courses like Allied Health or STEM courses on part time or distance learning. Thanks

For example a full time in mathematics and computer science

Yes, that's right - if you already have a degree or honours degree then you won't be entitled to any funding from us if you study Mathematics or Computer Science full-time.

However, these courses are normally part-time exceptions. So, if you decide to study part-time you can get a Tuition Fee Loan for the duration. Also, if the course isn't distance learning, you can get a Maintenance Loan too.

Thanks, Graeme
