Important Information for Access Course Students

Students enrolled in our Access Course should be prepared to dedicate significant time to their studies outside of scheduled class hours. In addition to attending college for two days a week, each consisting of a 6-hour session from 9:30 AM to 4:30 PM, students are expected to commit at least 12 hours of study outside of these college days. Attendance is crucial, and it is expected that students attend the entire session each day. Personal arrangements will need to be made to accommodate this schedule to ensure successful completion of the course.

Access is an intensive study programme; you must be completely committed to hard work and are required to maintain 100% attendance You are expected to self-study for a minimum of 10 extra hours a week to manage strict work deadlines and to cope with the workload
