I started at Fife College after S6 because I was completely unsure what I wanted to do. I decided to do HNC: Applied Sciences. I thought it would let me explore different avenues.
The environment is very welcoming at Fife College. The classes are quite small which is really good. You get to meet different people who are doing different things... no one is doing the same thing after we leave. I’ m going to Dundee University to do Child and Mental Health Nursing.
I’ d recommend Fife College, especially if you’ re not sure what to do. It gives you a wide base and clarity about what to do. I’ m excited for the next stage!”
