Can I transfer Uni from a course that started in September to one that begins in January?

I began at plymouth uni studying health and social care in september, and feel I made the wrong decision. I was interested in a paramedic science foundation degree in uwe, and the course begins in January, and was hoping that i might be able to drop out and begin there. I have emailed the admissions team for uwe and am waiting for a response, but I am concerned about what this will mean for my student loan and things. Could anyone please help me.
