Think again!
Our Access courses provide a stepping stone to university-level study in a range of subject areas.
As long as you are over 19 and have a minimum of grade C in GCSE English and maths, you can study an Access to Higher Education course. You might also be eligible for an Advanced Student Loan, which helps to cover the cost of tuition fees.
