I am 39 and have just applied to start an Access course in September and ultimately would like to go on and do a degree in Psychology. I have only ever been able to get fairly low paid admin jobs because I only have a handful of 'O'levels and would love to have a better future to look forward to. If I do this course I would give up work (redundancy on cards in near future anyway). My husband is a fairly low wage earner too and between us get quite a high level of tax credits. Question is would I be entitled to any sort of grant while i study and would I get course fees paid? Without financial help I won't be able to pursue this but haven't a clue how it all works. Any advice would be gratefully received! thanks
