"Compared to a normal university I've had the opportunity to develop so many skills that I wouldn't have been exposed to otherwise, all whilst getting to apply my degree to real world problems as I learn. Plus - no student debt!"

Cora Bancroft works three days a week as an engineer at Dyson whilst studying for her degree from The University of Warwick for the other two. Cora has returned every year since leaving to encourage and inspire more students to consider an apprenticeship.

Daisy Miller was part of the Student Leadership Team in 2020-21 and ran our sporting events. She is now studying Sport and Exercise science (4years with placement) at Loughborough University.

"The best bit about my course is the clarity; lectures are organised to run smoothly as well as clear organisation of the opportunities available to us in exciting areas such as research which helps shape the subject. My future plans are to become a Psychologist after completing Post-graduate training."
