If this is your first Level 3 qualification; you may be entitled to some fee remissions. If you're aged 24 or over and take out a 24+ Advanced Learning Loan to fund your Access to HE Diploma; then go on to successfully complete your degree or subsequent higher education course; the Government will write off the loan that covered your Access course.
