I'm asking for a friend who starts an MRes in September. She's been told by the bank that an MRes course does not qualify for a career development loan, but I've always been told that that's how you fund a Masters.
She also said that if she gets a loan she would have to start paying it off 6 months after her course, even though she's starting a PhD.Does anyone have any advice on how to fund a masters course and not worry about paying it back until the end of her PhD
