Funding for part-time masters course

oneofakind32 · 2011-07-14 12:57:48

Hi Guys, Im wondering is there any funding / grants / tax breaks for someone doing a part time course while still working!? Would I be right in saying that I would not be eligable for a grant from my Co-Co if I was doing a part-time course and working?

You only get grants for full time courses

You can get tax relief on tuition fees

It was so much easier to blame it on Them. It was bleakly depressing to think that They were Us. If it was Them, then nothing was anyone's fault. If it was us, what did that make Me? After all, I'm one of Us. I must be. I've certainly never thought of myself as one of Them. No one ever thinks of themselves as one of Them. We're always one of Us. It's Them that do the bad things.
