It is open to a wide range of students and assessed to the same high standard as a programme within one of the University's Colleges. There are no requirements for you to come to London, so no relocation or travel costs and you can continue working full time. In addition, any number of students can join this programme, so if you meet our entrance requirements you will be offered a place.
