Hi Krishna,

I think you should ask someone at the university - perhaps a postgraduate advisor, or administrator, or your supervisor. I know that it is possible to switch to part time study, if you are having financial difficulties, and so I don't see why you couldn't just switch back later on if you manage to get funding. Your best bet is to ask the university, because different subjects and institutions have different regulations as far as this is concerned. Good luck.
