Mature Student and DMP

Hi Everyone

Not sure if this is the right section to post on so apologies if it is wrong. Am hoping that someone can help with this question as googling does not seem to bring anything up.

Basically I am looking at returning to studies next year in either nursing or one of the AHP's. Either way it will be a healthcare profession. I am looking at London universities as I have nothing up here (Bradford) really and would like the challenge. My question is I have a DMP with StepChange currently and am wanting to know what would happen with that if I returned to being a student? I have already done HE education but am not happy with what I am doing and after volunteering in healthcare for almost three years would like to make the jump.

Thanks in advance everyone :-)

    You would be best to ask on one of the debt management boards.

    I would query how you expect to cover the extortionate cost of living in London - Student Finance alone will not be sufficient. There are lots of other places offering nursing courses with a lower cost of living.
