I have recently found out that I am not eligible for the Postgraduate Loan from Student Finance. I want to do a Master's to benefit my carer goals. However, I do not know how to go about finding funding. Or what is the most beneficial funding during the course and after?

I know people used to get funding from banks but I can only seem to find SLC Postgraduate Loan.
I am also based in the UK.

Please, can someone help me?

    Have you asked the university where you plan to study?

    This is offered by some banks for funding PG qualifications

    Unfortunately no other provider took them on which has reduced options for students.

    Your university should have access to a really handy book called Postgraduate Guide to Student Funding
