Going to keep this short otherwise I'll be here all day rambling..
Basically, I have been accepted to study the 5 year Medicine course, yes I am totally over the moon!! I am very happy & proud that its been worth all the hard work, however, there is one major problem - it is my second degree & the fees are £9000 a year. I am not eligible for funding as LEA funded my previous degree, so I have to cough up, big time.
We have worked out that with our savings I can afford the first two years, plus the final year is paid by NHS anyway, so that leaves two years - £18000, that I somehow need to magically find!!
I'm starting to think my only hope would be private loans, yes the APR would be extortionate, but surely worth it since I would be going into a secure profession that would allow me to pay it off?
Any ideas would be great.
