About the Access to Higher Education Diploma

This one-year course has been specially designed for mature students who wish to progress to university. Applicants will need an English GCSE minimum grade C and we may recommend you take additional qualifications alongside this one. The Access to Higher Education Diploma has proved to be a highly successful route to Higher Education. You will be based at our fantastic new £10million University Centre, where many of our students progress onto one of the College's degree courses.
