University-Level Course Guide | Access to Higher Education
Overview
We offer Access to HE courses in Art & Design, Health & Social Care, Humanities, Nursing, Midwifery & Medical Science, Science and Teaching (Humanities and Science routes).
These courses are specifically designed for learners aged over 19, who wish to take a university-level course but don’t have the normal entrance requirements for HE. They are recognised by universities and other HE institutions as an alternative to standard A Level entry.
There are many reasons why this route may suit you; you may be a student who has completed some qualifications and can show the right level of skill and maturity for this programme or you may be a mature applicant who has not studied A Levels but possesses a wealth of experience in your chosen field. The courses provide a broad programme of study that includes core modules and more specialist modules that will enable you to progress.
Year after year, our students secure places at the country’s leading universities, on courses such as midwifery, nursing, psychology, graphic design and many more.
Applicants aged 19 or over can apply for the Advanced Learner Loan to pay for the course fees. If you continue onto a degree programme following successful completion of the Access to HE Diploma, you will not have to pay back your loan. For more information contact our Guidance Centre on 01271 338125 or visit

“I’m so excited to pursue my career in social work and I’m not finding the degree daunting at all with the skills I gained from Access. I would recommend the course to everyone if they’re serious about attending university. Best choice I’ve ever made!” Gemma Bray, former Access to HE student
