Courses that play to your strengths
Our students are unique individuals so our courses take a flexible and inclusive approach to learning and assessment. When we offer you a place we look at who you are and consider your experiences and potential, as well as your grades. We’ll support your transition from school to university, offering you personalised learning and support.
Whatever you study, you’ll develop a valuable combination of knowledge and skills that will get you career-ready, through courses that combine critical thinking with practical, hands-on experience.
A strong support system
You’ll be part of a caring community that builds you up, where success means feeling good as well as doing well. We’ll help you to prioritise your emotional and mental wellbeing with a support system that includes teams of advisors and specialists who are here for you. We also share self-help tools and create ways for students to support one another.
