Part time Students

dizziblonde85

I am starting a part time course with the Open university. I will be studying towards a Bsc(hons) degree in Natural Sciences-Biology. I will be studying this at a minimum pace of 60 credits a year (120 credits a year is full time), I will also be working full time alongside this.


Does anyone as a part time student what deals, offers I am applicable for?


I know I can apply for a NUS student card, but that’s all I can find.
The HSBC also offer a student account for part time students, but only if you have a disability.


What else it out there?

Thank you
