Thought that you couldn't study for a degree?
Yes you can with a Foundation Year...
Studying for a degree with an integrated foundation year will offer you a supportive environment if you have been out of education for a few years or do not have the necessary UCAS points from your recent course of study.
The foundation year (Year 0) will precede our standard 3-year degree course programmes and enables preparation for degree study, with successful completion granting direct access to the undergraduate course of your choice at Writtle University College.
Following successful completion, students will progress to the relevant undergraduate degree at WUC in Sport Science, Agriculture, Horticulture, Equine, Canine Therapy, Animal Science, Animal Management or Animal Therapy.
