Undergraduate degrees

Our degree courses are taught in nurturing, small classes with individual support to help you get the most out of your degree and prepare you for your next steps, whether that's into work or further study. 

Access to Higher Education Diplomas

If you don't have A level qualifications, completing an Access to HE course will allow you to progress on to study for a degree. Our access courses are open to adults without formal qualifications and are accepted by most universities for entry onto undergraduate degree courses. Financial support is available and we can advise you on how to apply and access funding.

Short courses

At Ruskin, we run a range of short courses, from Tailored Learning (previously called Community Learning) to awards and qualifications. All of these courses help our students acquire new skills, improve their mental health and confidence, and build personal and professional networks. For funding information, please see our tuition fee policy.
