Top Up Your Foundation Degree

Thinking of further study?

A Foundation Degree is a nationally recognised, stand-alone qualification in its own right, but you may wish to consider ‘topping up’ to a full Bachelors Degree at the University of Sunderland.

Most Foundation Degrees have a progression route – visit the Higher Education Gateway Centre (second floor of the Woodhouse Lane Campus) or contact the Partnership Liaison Officer for more information (Tel: 07748 334 908
