I do not have a merit profile in my HND/HNC. What can you offer me?
Discuss your application with a tutor from King Alfred's - special circumstances may apply to account if you have under-performed. You also have the option of entering the BA(Hons) Business Management with Business Communications in Year 2 for which your HND qualifies you.

Can I complete my project (Final Year Project) at a later date?
Certainly. You can undertake the seven taught modules and then qualify for a degree. You can undertake a Project any time during the next five years and upon successful completion you will then be awarded an Honours degree.
In any case, you can choose to submit your Project in mid-July instead of the date scheduled for the rest of the College which is usually around the end of April of each year.

Can I undertake the degree part-time during the day?
You can certainly undertake the degree part-time by attending the day-time classes rather than the evening class. To progress at the rate of two modules a semester, you will have to be released from work or other commitments for two sessions i.e. one morning and one afternoon per week.

How do I apply?
If you intend to study the course full-time, then you apply through UCAS (Universities and Colleges Admission Service) in the normal way. There are express arrangements if you apply late in the year and only intend to apply to one college.
Part-time students apply on a special part-time admissions forms available from the Admissions Unit of the Registry at King Alfred's.

Do you have Open Days for me to visit the College?
The College organises regular Open Days in which you can visit the college and have a guided tour of the facilities - email us if you wish to be sent details of the next available Open Day.
In any case, you can always make an individual appointment to visit the College and discuss an intending application with a tutor.

Will I find the transition to the third year of an Honours degree very difficult?
Most students start off the course with this fear in mind but in practice do extremely well once they have got into the rhythm of the course. Two of the modules in Semester One are examined by 100% continuous assessment with which you are likely to be more familiar.
