Unsure how to get funding
Options
I am currently 17 but will be 18 when my course starts, in September I will be attending 2 colleges studying 2 separate courses one I will have to pay for and the other I will not. The course I will have to pay for is a level 3 CIPD certificate course (£1265) they usually take people on who are 19+ however they let me enrol, I wanted to get some form of student loan to pay for the course and resources needed however I have to be 19 to apply for the advanced learners loan and I am not sure if I’m eligible for a student finance loan as it is a level 3 and not a degree. Can anyone help?

Sorry I don't know what level 3 CIPD is, but anything in here of any use? : https://www.gov.uk/funding-for-postgraduate-study
Or you could maybe look at Apprenticeships and get them to pay for it?
Dunno if you'd have the time with another course to do that though, best part of being your age is going to the Student Union!1 -
I agree with previous poster, ask the student union/college what funding or help there would be to help with the fees.
Would you qualify for the level 3 CIPD ?
Can your parents not help ?1 -
Until you are 18 no lender will look at any lending application from you.2
