Whatever they want to be, we’ll be here to help
Supporting your child through their university journey
If your child is considering university, it's only natural to want to help them navigate this exciting, but possibly daunting, journey. You'll want to ensure they are going to the right place for them and, crucially, that they will receive the very best support as they embark on this pivotal stage of their life.
If you are unsure who we are or what we can offer your child, take a look through our website and our parents and carers guide as a starting point. You can also find out about our award-winning support, including academic, financial, mental health and wellbeing and disability support, and some of the top reasons to study here. Please do not hesitate to contact our Admissions team on 0121 604 1040 if you need more help.
We excel at delivering career-focused, vocational degrees. These cover subject areas such as food and hospitality, tourism and events, business and finance, cyber security, digital marketing, sport and nutrition, childcare and more.
The vast majority of our undergraduate degree courses are accredited by the University of Warwick. Our foundation degrees, BA and BSc courses (bachelor degrees), both part-time and full-time, will equip your child with skills that are highly valued by the industry.
