There is also a fund for those under 24 that is very similar. Basically the government have extended the student loans for degrees to those doing level 3/4 courses.

Also check local authorities as many have funding for those in their area.

The BVNA website usually has a list of bursaries and grants that people can access. I've had a few students get sums of £500 or more.

College of Animal Welfare also do a 'pay as you learn' scheme where you pay monthly making course fess a little more manageable.

There are also career development loans backed by the government

its wortch checking what's available close to the time of starting college as rules do change on what finance is available.

good luck!

If shes over 24 she can get an adult 24+ adult learning loan. You dont start paying it back til you earn over 21K.
