yes. apply to the student loan company.
regardless of the fact you already have a degree, you still have to pay fees etc, so theyll still give you some sort of loan.
youll be considered as a mature student (as far as i know), which might affect the amount you receive, but youll get something anyway.
get in touch with the student loan company (not sure of the website - try google) and theyll send you the forms.
good luck with your studies!

Yes, it is possible but when I did my first degree I did not apply for a grant as it was in those days and I paid my own fees, which meant I was entitled to a student loan for my second degree.
I don't know of any other circumstances in which you might be elegible.
Good luck

yes you can still apply for a student loan, i think the cut off point is something like 55, and you can have studied any amount of subjects. (this is for the uk though)

Yes, it's possible. You should go talk to financial aid office. There are more options for graduate students.

It is possible as long as you don't owe the student loans company any money from your previous degree.
If you got funding for your last degree you will need to pay back the money you owe before you are entitled to another loan.

Yes, what about the students who took a student loan to go to college, and then later took out another one to go to law school?

Yes. I'm not sure if there is an overall maximum, however in terms of which loans get paid interest during your study, and which ones accumulate interest as you go. It's a lot.

As long as you are willing to pay and you are not in default, you can get a loan for school.
