Help paying tuition fees

Options
Hi,

I attended University for a while straight out of high school. I completed my first year and dropped out during my second. SAAS had paid my fees for both. That was about 7 years ago.

I'm 26 now and thinking about going back to Uni. I'd be doing a different course so I'd have to start from first year again. I know SAAS won't pay my fees cause I've already been to Uni. Is there any other organisations out there that help pay for mature students to go to University, even if they've already been?

    They might pay your third and fourth years. I'm not sure, but have you looked at the OU?
