Access is a Level Three (A Level standard) programme specifically designed for adult learners (over 19) who would like to prepare to study a University course. Access courses give learners the skills as well as the qualification they need to take their study further. The courses are designed to build confidence and personal development and to enable learners to work independently and successfully when they reach University. The Access Diploma is a national qualification recognised by Universities across the country. Access students are valued by Universities for their determination and independent study skills. We have an extremely good track record of successful progression to University.

There are very few additional course costs for learners beyond the fee. You will need basic stationery, and a good USB stick and a scientific calculator are useful. We have an excellent library and good IT facilities at college, so if you don't have access to the internet at home, you can complete your work in college. Remember, though, that this is a demanding course and you will need to factor in the costs such as travel, child care and, in some cases, loss of earnings or other income if you undertake a significant course of study. It may be that you qualify for financial support to help towards travel and other incidental costs, or help with the costs of child care. We will discuss this at interview.
