Starting
your degree
at school
Fife College offers many routes to degree
programmes by working in partnership with local
schools to offer Higher National Qualifications to
complement your studies in the classroom.
This means that you can study a college course as
part of your timetable while you are still at school.
You can start your degree at school through Higher
National Certificate courses which are offered through
the School College Partnership and are equivalent to
year 1 of a university degree.
School College Partnership
You don’t have to wait until you finish school to start
thinking about what you want to do afterwards – you
can kick start your future and get ahead by studying
one of our fantastic School College Partnership Higher
National courses.
All of our courses are designed to help you develop
skills needed for both Higher Education and
employment, and allow you to be an independent, selfmotivated,
and creative critical thinker.
In many cases, it means you can study on campus
where you’ll experience college life, learn new skills
in our state-of-the-art facilities, and study a range
of Higher National subjects such as Accounting,
Administration, Business, Applied Science, 3D
computer Animation or Police Studies.
All our courses are chosen to allow you to move on to
a degree course either at Fife College or with one of or
university partners so you get the skills you really need
for your career.
