If you’re a part-time student you may be able to get a Professional and Career Development Loan. This could help with your course fees and living costs. It’s a bank loan you pay back when you finish your studies. The amount you can borrow for your whole course is between £300 and £10,000.

Tuition Fee Loans from September 2012

From September 2012 onwards, if you’re a part-time student who is starting your first degree, you may be able to get a Tuition Fee Loan to cover your tuition costs. The Tuition Fee Loan replaces the Fee Grant and Course Grant. Eligibility depends on the 'intensity' of your part-time course being at least 25 per cent of a full-time course. For example, if your course takes six years to complete and the full-time equivalent takes three, the intensity will be 50 per cent. Ask your university or college if you’re not sure.

You don’t have to pay back Maintenance Grants. A Special Support Grant is available instead of the Maintenance Grant if you're on benefits that take your household income into account. These are known as means-tested benefits and include Housing Benefit and Income Support.

Who writes Business Opportunities and Ideas

Business Opportunities and Ideas is written by John Crickett. I am an entrepreneur based in the UK who has been running my own businesses since September 11th 2001. During that time I’ve started a number of businesses and experienced my fair share of entrepreneurial success and failure. Thankfully the successes have outweighed the failures and running my own businesses has been a successful, satisfying and profitable experience.

As my background is primarily in technology based business. Computers and IT in particular, many of the business ideas I write about are based around the use of computer, IT and the Internet. I’m also a big fan of online businesses because the Internet has made it cheap and easy for just about anyone to start a business from home with little more than a laptop and Internet connection.
