    Hi there!
    Does anyone know if I could be eligible for any financial aid as a mature student applying for a full time course in DBS, I am finding it really really difficult to get any concrete information on this. If anyone has any information that would be amazing, thank you!

    The only thing I can suggest is trying to claim tax relief on 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.
