Study Your Way

At Hull College, the majority of our programmes are available to
study on a part-time basis and indeed many of our students choose
to study around their existing commitments including full time jobs
and families. Here’s what some of our students had to say.

I can’t recommend this course
enough; to get my degree in
three years whilst working
^HZKLÄUP[LS`[OLILZ[^H`[VKVP[0VUS`
wish I’d done it sooner. It isn’t always
easy, but with support from the college
and class you just get through it! Also
three years seems like a huge
commitment but the time has
disappeared so quickly.
I work in the area so coming to
College was a ten minute drive
after work. Another reason it
appealed to me was the ability to work
and develop my career whilst I studied,
not to mention getting paid whilst I do
it. The ‘open door’ policy from the tutors
made it easy for additional support when
needed and the e-resources and library are
incredibly helpful.

Studying part-time has meant I
have worked alongside all age
groups with different careers and
aspirations also helping me prepare for
my future. You will gain experience whilst
studying which in my opinion makes you
stand out above the crowd! Also doing
it this way means I can apply any theory
I learn in the classroom to the workplace
increasing my understanding. I also won’t
end up in debt! I now have a new job
which I wouldn’t have been prepared for

set at just £6,000 per year for new full-time undergraduates, which is
substantially lower than other higher education institutions (please contact
us for part-time fee information). We believe in making our provision as
accessible and cost effective as possible so have worked hard to keep
our fees in line with the base levels proposed by the Government. This
means you get value for money as well as an outstanding education
