    Hey everyone,
    So I've been really looking forward to going back to college in September.
    I've saved up the 2500 for the fees but I've just found out I do not qualify for free tuition.
    I did a year in another college, level 8 and failed, and the course I want to do is level 7.

    Does anyone know if the BTEA helps with tuition?
    :( Thats another 5 grand I just cannot afford

    BTEA will not help with tuition, AFAIK it is the same entitlements as your Job Seekers.

    When did you do the Level 8? If you have been on a break of 5 years out of education you can go back to do a level 7 or 8 undergraduate course with free fees as a Second Chance Student. If it has been under the 5 years you will have to pay full fees for your first year again
