You may be eligible for an Advanced Learner Loan to help pay tuition fees which is then written off if you go on to complete a degree course. You may also be entitled to study this course for free if you are:

  • aged between 19 and 23 with no previous Level 3 qualification OR 
  • live in a London Borough and are working on a low wage or unemployed or on a state benefit

See our video presentations below about the courses and financing your Access diploma: 

“I have studied at Kingston College since 2018 when I started an Access course in Art & Design. Experimenting in various disciplines helped me find my creative pathway.  In the BA top-up course, my focus was on painting and printmaking. To move on to the next stage of my artistic development, I applied to study for an MA and have received an offer from UAL to join their Fine Art Printmaking course in September".  Miyoung Han Lee, Access to HE Diploma in Art & Design
