Hi,
I have just started my first information job after a career change, and I want to study for a post-grad qualification but am unsure about how to progress.

The course I am interested in has a closing date of Aug - would this be for studying the following year or for a sept start the same year?
Also, it says that courses may be full by the closing date, so when should I send my application? - Will I still have a chance of getting in if I apply now (early July)? or should I wait till next year?

I am also confused about funding - what help is available?
Do I need to sort out it out before I apply for my course?

Any help would be brilliant!
Thanks.
