Hi there, I hope somebody can answer my question as my uni cant!!
I have been doing a long distance Bsc course for 2 years now and am now in receipt of working family tax credits, it suddenly dawned on me that I used to know someone who went through uni as a mature student and never paid a penny in fees. I am due to re-enrole for next term and am desperate to find out if I am entitled to help with my fees - if so how do I apply??? I have contacted my university but they say unless I have a student loan I cannot get any funding!!

You should be entitled to funding but as Oldernotwiser has said it is assessed on household income. I checked this out and didn't think I would get funding but I have been able to obtain funding.0
