Your Degree
Journey
Local
Studying locally at
Fife College could be
cheaper and more
convenient than
travelling or moving to
university.
If you have already studied
at college before, you’ll be
familiar with the college
set up even if you change
campus, and continuing
your degree studies with
us means that you can
continue to work with the
same lecturers.
Class sizes at college
tend to be smaller than at
university and provide a
bit more personal support,
helping you achieve your
qualification and progress
to your next step.
Flexible
Choosing the college
route to a degree means
that you don’t have to
commit to four years of
continuous study
You can take it a year
at a time and gain a
recognised qualification
at the end of every
year. That way, if a job
opportunity comes along
that’s too good to pass
up, you will already have
a recognised qualification
on your CV to go for it.
By choosing college, you
will have the opportunity
to gain the same
degree, from the same
universities, in the same
amount of time as others
who choose to study their
degree at university from
year one.
Affordable
Beginning your degree
at college can be
cheaper and more
convenient than going
straight to uni.
Not only could your study,
living, and travel costs
be lower studying at Fife
College but, if you’re
planning to study parttime,
you may also be
eligible for a part-time fee
grant towards the cost of
your tuition fees.
A space
dedicated to
degree study
We know that the
spaces that you
learn and study in
are important.
Our University Hub
in Dunfermline has
been designed
specifically to
help you to feel
comfortable and
focused in your
studies.
Students studying
HNCs, HNDs, and
degrees all make
use of the Hub – it’s
like a mini university
campus!
