Returning back to college

    Hi, I'm considering returning to college to undertake another honours degree. I have completed a degree in Business and Sports Science but I have no motivation to pursue a career in this area. Not to sound cheeky but, in regards to paying full tuition for the 4 years, approximately €38000, which is a massive deterrent to my decision, is there a way around this by not mentioning your previous college experience. I paid my whole way through my last course, without the aid of a grant, so I appreciate how taxing course fees are. I don't mind paying for registration fees but going back to my point, is there a background check to verify any previous educational experience? Thanks and much appreciated for any advice. Is it also possible to claim for tax relief on tuition fees, if so how much of the 38000 would I be receiving in relief?

    No

    You can't get free tuition fees a second time and to be honest you don't just sound cheeky you are asking us how to commit fraud

    It was so much easier to blame it on Them. It was bleakly depressing to think that They were Us. If it was Them, then nothing was anyone's fault. If it was us, what did that make Me? After all, I'm one of Us. I must be. I've certainly never thought of myself as one of Them. No one ever thinks of themselves as one of Them. We're always one of Us. It's Them that do the bad things.
