Very Frustrating Situation For Employment And Tuition Fees?(uk Answers Please)?


ok, im sorry to be so self pitying here but I need some good advice. I recently graduated from uni with a bare pass degree.
It was disappointing considering I was ,in high school, an A grade student. I worked my socks off at school and felt when the results paid off and when I was done with the all-paid place in a prestigious uni I managed to be accepted into then the world would be at my finger tips.
But I took ill n I had to drop out in my final year and then i had to PAY about 1000 to sit my final year which meant I couldn’t save to go on any work placements abroad.
I then took ill again, (auto immune) had to study very late for exams and got a ok result considering, but despite this my lecturers told me in my second year that I would get a first class cert as I was showing very high grades from 1st year.
I cannot get employment just now as I keep getting informed that they want years of work experience or a higher degree award .
My catch 22 is that when applying for a post graduate place uni’s (so i can improve my grade) all refuse me on my final grade, so i cant improve it and cant get a job.
I have asked companies for work experience and they told me they can’t offer anything as I’m not studying or and undergraduate (this is for internships) . For work placements over seas you have to be affiliated to a uni so I cant do that and independant companies come at a high cost as do other paid qualifications. As competition is so high for both employment and education Im finding myself in between a rock and a hard place being told by the job centre to “try harder” .
I wasnt to emigrate but cant as i do have an illness (and the NHS is free) . My life is a stale mate just not. I see old high school folks who left school with nothing now in good jobs and I am questioning my life choices . I love learning and its killing me not being able to do aNYTHING with my qualities.
