DLA and bettering myself!!!

tenacioust123

I've been toying with the idea of taking an OU course. I'm on DLA, HRM LRC and IB. My partner works full time, but money is still quite tight!!
Not sure if I would be entitled to any help with funding?
Any help would be appriciated

I'm doing an ou course, I'm on the second one towards my degree. When I logged on yesterday there was a bit sign saying that even if you work full time you could get funding, so it's always worth applying.

You can only get funding for your first degree though, if you've already got one you'll have to pay.

also don't forget, if you are on housing benefit or council tax benefit you will also need to inform the council (both departments) separatly.

Thanks everyone.

I have just looked at the OU website and am a bit confused so have emailed them for some information.

I'm not the only one to be a bit confused, thought it was my medication:rotfl:

I find their website really hard to navigate, I've never been able to find the forums for courses I'm on!
