Helping you achieve your university ambitions

• All courses are designed to help you progress to a more advanced college course, university study, employment or training/apprenticeship.
• Whatever your starting level, all courses will help you on your way to achieving your ambitions.
• Because our courses are usually taught over a year, you can choose to complete your studies after each year, depending on what you want to achieve.

Progressing to university

• Many of our students progress to university: Glasgow University, Strathclyde University, University of the West of Scotland and many others.
• Over 40 of our courses have direct routes to university study, many leading directly to second or third year of a degree course. It means that you can still gain your degree in four years by studying at college first.
• We also offer a degree in accounting in partnership with the University of the West of Scotland, taught at our campus in East Kilbride.
