The Access to University programme (Access to HE Diploma) is an intensive course for those aged 19 and over, especially for people who are returning to education. It is specifically geared towards a graduate career, and prepares students to study at university level towards future employment in a range of healthcare-related careers. The course aims to help students acquire the skills and knowledge needed to apply for various health / social care degrees, such as Adult Nursing, Paediatric Nursing, Mental Health Nursing, Midwifery, Paramedic Science or Health and Social Care. Completion of the Access to HP course allows students to gain direct entry to their chosen degree; successful students are able to gain places at UK-wide universities as well as with local providers the University of Lincoln and Bishop Grosseteste University.
You will need Mathematics and English GCSE (minimum grade 4 or equivalent) or, if applying for Midwifery, a minimum of 5 GCSEs (minimum grade 4 or equivalent) prior to enrolling on the programme.
Some universities may accept Functional Skills Level 2 qualifications instead of GCSEs. If you possess a Level 2 equivalent and have written evidence that the university you intend to apply to accepts them as part of their entry requirements, you will be accepted onto the Access to University course.
You must possess at least one Level 2 qualification in English or Maths. If you do not possess both English and Maths Level 2 qualifications, an alternative condition of entry is that you must complete a diagnostic test to demonstrate you are capable of successfully studying and achieving the missing qualification alongside your Access to University studies.
You will also be required to complete some pre-enrolment tasks.
Assessment is a combination of written assessments and assignments.
You will require general stationery items and access to the internet; PCs are available on campus.
