Fantastic news if it's true, but not too sure about the funding, and will it apply to me given I graduate next year? Doubt it!

I mean - will they successfully fund it? The plans sound very expensive! And by "not true" I mean will it have lots of catches really - there's an air of "too good to be true" about this plan!

I probably wont be covered by this - while I did start my first course in 01/02, I've already been asked for the £2k and opted to defer it for further study. Somehow I doubt I'll be getting away with this

Still no idea what it means for those about to cough up though. | |
