Equivalent or Lower Qualifications
As many of you will be aware the UK government has withdrawn funding for students studying at University for a qualification at or below the level of a qualification they already hold - an Equivalent or Lower Qualification. This will not affect our courses, as physics-related subjects such as this are desiginated vulnerable subjects, and so attract replacement funding. In addition many categories of part-time and fee-waiver students continue to attract funding as before regardless of the subject studied. Students already enrolled on a programme of study, including building up to a larger award by studying a series of single-module certificates, are not affected by these regulations. For information only, we note that the module fee for courses not covered by these exceptions and exemptions would be £850.
