What will I do?

Students who are interested in achieving a recognised qualification to gain access to Higher Education can combine a number of specialist subjects, or selections from specialist subjects, plus the requisite number of credits from Core Studies to achieve the Access to Higher Education Diploma. This is a good pathway for those wishing to gain access to Business Studies degree programmes.

Entry requirements

You will be asked to attend an interview and undertake a writing task.

Assessment

Students are assessed through a mixture of coursework, essays, projects, presentations and in-class tests. In GCSE English and Mathematics equivalents there are externally set tests.

Progression

After successfully completing the course, students can progress into Higher Education. The subject of the degree will
depend on the nature of specialist subjects completed.
