Student Funding For Work placement?

holly22lim · 2013-02-01 20:13:32

Hi, I am a third year student who is going out on work placement for 6 months. As a result of getting my placement i have to give up my part time job. My work placement is voluntary so i wont be getting paid. Does anyone know if their is any sort of funding or assistants that can help me? Would i be eligible for the dole?…

I always have worked full time each summer to pay my fees, if i cant get any assistance i am more likely going to have to drop out of college because i wont be able to afford it.
