What if I want to study a different course, to the one I’ve been offered?

We do of course understand that students may wish to study a different master's course to the one that has been suggested. For example, we have several conversion masters like our Data Science MSc degree and our (Pre-Registration) Adult Nursing MSc for those that who haven’t gained their first degree in these subjects. For those that maybe considering a career in teaching, our National Institute of Teaching and Education offer PGCE with QTS. So, if you would like to explore other postgraduate study options, we invite you to contact us if that’s something you would like to discuss.

  • Some postgraduate courses have prerequisite requirements and require a relevant/related degree, interview or portfolio review. Such postgraduate courses may be precluded from being guaranteed and automatically offered. However, we will assess your application in relation to this when submitted. For example:

    •  A Psychology BSc graduate could not be considered for MSc Nursing as it requires a min 2:2 degree in Nursing.
    • A Management BA (Hons) and Leadership graduate could not be considered for  Advanced Mechanical Engineering MSc. They would, however, be considered for the Engineering Management MSc degree.

    So, if you find the prospect of finding a graduate job daunting right now or you just aren’t ready to end your studies yet, consider postgraduate study with us. If you would like to go ahead with receiving a formal offer, complete the form and our admissions teams will be in touch to help secure your place.
