From Student to Graduate!

Karen Howard

Karen, who studied DipHe Complementary Healthcare and Wellbeing also graduated with us in 2023. She tells us why she choose to study whilst her son was at school!

“I chose Lincoln College as it is fairly local to me. I was a stay-at-home mum and so this course is perfect because it has given me something for me and that I can have my own business with afterwards."

Access to University

If you'd like to start a university-level course, but don't have the UCAS points (such as A Levels or BTEC) you can study the Access to University (HE) course first which is a qualification which prepares students for study at degree level and is the equivalent UCAS points as three A Levels / BTEC.

Successful students achieve a full Level 3 qualification, enabling them to progress to study a Higher Education course at university or college. It is an intensive course, typically run over one year, for students aged 19 and over and especially intended for students returning to education. The courses have been designed to complement those with work and family commitments.
