An alternative route to University or Higher Education for students aged 19+ who may have left school early or have been out of education for at least a year, Access to HE Diploma - Business Studies is designed to give adult students who may have left school early or have been out of education for a number of years the opportunity to develop academic skills, confidence and knowledge before applying to university. This course requires a minimum of 90% attendance and the successful completion of 45 graded subject specific credits (business topics) and 15 ungraded credits (study skills).

This is an intensive course of study and requires a high level of commitment, including several hours of self study in the student's own time. Day time study is approximately 12 hours delivered over two or three days a week in college during the 2025-2026 academic year. The exact timetable will be issued at the induction in September 2025.

The Access to HE Diplomas at Kingston College are nationally recognised qualifications and are awarded by The Open College Network London Region (OCNLR).
