PPA funding

Post by chivers61 »

Just wondering if anyone knows why Performance Preparation Academy - PPA - offer a BA accredited by DeMontfort University but you can't get a student fee loan or maintenance loan. It appears you can only get a PCDL of up to £10,000 towards years 2 and 3.

That seems very strange..if it is offering a degree from an accredited university..
Might be worth giving them a call x
I believe that children are our future, teach them well and let them lead the way.......

They only started the degree course within last year or so and have to be accessed I believe to be able to offer funding. They had hoped it would be in place for this September intakes when we were shown round a few months ago

Thanks dancemom43. Looks like that may not happen then which is a shame as it would make the course much more attractive financially and it's a bit late now unless it happens in the next month or so.
