Any bank account offers for part-time masters (MBA) students?

Hi everyone,

I hope to shortly embark on a distance learning MBA (part time while still working). I wondered if anyone knew of any banks that did enticing offers to try and attract people like me, on the basis that they may percieve MBA students having higher future earnings? If nothing specific for masters students, would my circumstances allow me to apply for a normal student account or do they treat part time or distance students differently?

Thanks for your help...

    Depending on who you are studying with you may not be entitled to any help.
    The OU for example will offer to help pay for your course fees and give you a grant if you earn under their threshold for this year.....you are generally not entitled to a student account because you don't attend a brick university for X number of hours per week. See if the institution you are studying with offers grants/financial aid etc.
    Using my phone to post - apologies in advance for any typos
