College articulation routes
If you are studying or have recently completed an HNC or HND qualification , you may be able to enter directly into Year Two ( with an HNC ) or Year Three ( if you have an HND ) of one of our degrees . While advanced entry ( articulation ) may not be possible in all subject areas , advanced entry into Years Two or Three is often possible where your HNC or HND is in a similar subject area to the degree course you are applying to study . The most common articulation routes are listed on our website at www . qmu . ac . uk / college-qualifications
Guidance and support for college leavers and mature students
QMAdvance
Access students and mature students studying at college will be offered the opportunity to attend QMAdvance . QMAdvance is designed to give you the opportunity to meet other new students who have come to QMU via a similar route and aims to ensure that you feel confident in your abilities while giving early access to a range of key services and staff . The course takes place over three days in the week before the new academic year starts . We send out information about the programme to eligible students over the summer , but if you think you would like more information please contact the Outreach and Community Engagement Team at any stage during the application process .
Direct entrant induction
At the beginning of the academic year , students entering directly into Year Two or Year Three of one of our degree courses will attend a dedicated week-long induction programme before starting the course . Direct entrant induction is run by a team of former advanced entry students , in partnership with academic and support staff , and will ensure you are fully prepared to join your course at an advanced level . The Induction offers subject-specific input and generic university information , such as timetable , IT and support service information . Students will also receive guidance on how to develop the academic and research skills needed for degree level study . Our aim is to make the transition from college to university as smooth as possible and give all students the best start to their lives at QMU .
If you would like any advice or information about coming to QMU from college , please contact the Outreach and Community Engagement Team .
