Hi there,

I think we may be answering your question on social media at this very moment (if not please tell us here), but this is what we've said:

We'd strongly recommend that you login and make a student finance application with us now, or as soon as you're able. That way, we can see your full (new) course details and also your previous study. Our assessment team can then confirm exactly what you're entitled to.

From what you've said, you may be doing a 'top-up', which means you may be entitled to funding for the duration of your course, but we need to see your application to say for sure. Thanks, Graeme"

Thanks!
