If other people have taken the modular route and subsequently got jobs then why can't you. Yes Integrated gives you the 'extra bonus' points but at what expense. That degree of expense is for some people a gamble not a cost, look at your personal circumstances ... realistically.

Modular students can probably afford to wait a little longer for a job and then once employed quickly pay off the debt. How many years will it take once you have a job to pay the integrated £60-100K off? Don't throw your life away just because some FTO says so.

Sure, listen to the sales pitch and visit the schools but also ask yourself why can't I devise a plan for myself too? Of course you can plan your post training, when, where and how much, etc......

There's a good reason why banks don't lend money out to wannabes for these course prices .....
