Who says you can ’ t study towards a degree at college ?
We say you can !
At Fife College , we offer a wide range of Higher National Certificates ( HNCs ) and Higher National Diplomas ( HNDs ) across all subject areas , and these qualifications are at the same academic level on the Scottish Credit and Qualifications Framework ( SCQF ) as 1st and 2nd year of a university degree . So once you ’ ve completed your qualification , you can move on to study a degree if you want to , or choose to head out into employment with some fantastic qualifications in your pocket which may also support you to return to study at a later point and still go on to gain a degree .
We offer over 300 articulation routes with our partner universities giving you the option after gaining your HN qualification , to progress directly to second or third year of a full degree qualification . However , we realise that not everyone is ready to sign up for a full degree course in one go . If that ’ s the case , then you can take your Higher Education ( HE ) studies one year at time , gaining a recognised qualification for each year of successfully completed study .
When you choose Fife College for your HE study , you ’ ll find that you can fit your learning around all your other commitments , with full-time , part-time , online and weekend / evening study options on offer across a wide range of subject areas .
If you attend a high school in Fife , you could even get a head start on your degree pathway while you are still at school , by choosing to study an HNC with us through one of our School College Partnership programmes . Visit fife . ac . uk / schools to find out more .
Degree courses ? Yes , we offer those as well ! In partnership with three universities we deliver full degree and Honours degree courses at our campuses in Fife . These degrees are awarded by the universities and are identical to the degree certificate you would get if you attended the university itself .
Whichever route you want to choose , we ’ ve got a range of options for you to consider . Apply now to start your degree journey with Fife College . Courses start in August 2022 .
