Thats a MASSIVE issue, and will severely effect your funding prospects. It may be an idea to look for funding from your own country. You chances of getting funding in the UK are slim.

Are you an UK (or EU national)? A big issue too.

What are your motivations for doing this and will they get you through?

Employment Opportunites after PhD

There is a fair bit of anecdotal evidence on here (over the months) of people getting nowhere extremely slowly when trying to trade off their PhD outside academia. I'm all for looking on the bright side/making the best of things but there is much to suggest that a PhD will be of little practical benefit outside ones chosen academic/research field.

Put bluntly if you've got £2k a year I'm (absolutely) sure you'll find some University that will take your money (to be honest whether its in your interests or not). I'm not trying to be offensive here (really I'm not), but can't you find more interesting/worthwhile things to do with your time?
