Conversion course and postgrad

Hi, I am currently studying undergraduate Criminology with Psychology at Leeds Beckett University, in my final year.
I would like to pursue a degree in forensic psychology in the future and therefore need a BPS accreditation. In order to get this accreditation, I am looking to do a conversion course in Psychology at Leeds Beckett (Postgraduate MSc Psychology conversion award).
I was then hoping to do a masters in Forensic Psychology at Newcastle University.

Would I receive student finance or any funding for both?

Thank you

Hi jessbloxam,

You wouldn't be eligible for both unfortunately as you would hold an equal level qualification when you go to apply for the 2nd one which is the eligibility criteria to apply for the Postgraduate Loan.

Thanks, Clare
