funding for a degree

Hello


I would like to study biomedical science at a brick university part time

I have studied with open university for 5 years but did not get a degree, I only received a certificate of higher education
Can I get full tuition loan and maintenance if I study biomedical science part time ?

Hi there,

When are you hoping to start this course? Do you have a university in mind and we can check this on the system?

Thanks,
Claire

Thank you. Do you have the course code there or the full name of the course as I can only see a 3 year option for Biomedical Science. Also, when you say next year will this be September 2026? Thanks, Jason

Thank you. On their database it does only show a 3 year option but courses beginning after August 2026 are not yet available to view. These likely won't be updated by the university until nearer the start of spring as long as they indicate a 6 year option then you'll be able to apply for it.

The course studied part time is an exception as long as the degree obtained is one of the following:

part time honours degree

joint honours degree

integrated masters degree.


Thanks, Jason

That's correct. If you're studying that specific course then this would be classed as an exception. Thanks, Jason

Hi there,

There is no part time course of this name on our database. There is only a full time 3 year paramedic science course.

Thanks, Drew
