Eskay Jones Posted August 16, 2010 Report Share Posted August 16, 2010 yeah course you can. It's called lying. I had zero qualifications when I went to uni. Other than my GCSE's. Got into Brunel Uni no problems. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest WAVESURFER Posted August 16, 2010 Report Share Posted August 16, 2010 Go to college, get a qualification in there, and go that route. Dunno the specific qualifications you (not you) need to get, but I know that is a possible route people take. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Awesome Kong Posted August 16, 2010 Report Share Posted August 16, 2010 For the degree I did, you can do a foundation degree, which anyone really can enter. This will allow you to go to uni and do a course for the main degree. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest M12 Part 2 Posted August 16, 2010 Report Share Posted August 16, 2010 theres a lot of college type access courses that you can do in 1 or 2 years to get onto certain degrees as well. The kinda thing Ashman did where its not even a B-Tec. http://www.direct.gov.uk/en/EducationAndLearning/UniversityAndHigherEducation/WhyGoToUniversityOrCollege/DG_4017026 One qualification widely accepted by universities and colleges is the Access to Higher Education Diploma. Developed with support from universities, the diploma is designed to provide a good grounding in the knowledge and study skills needed to succeed in higher education. It’s equivalent to A levels, but courses are put together with people who haven’t studied for a while in mind - and most don’t require prior qualifications. There are over 1,000 courses leading to the diploma, in subjects ranging from arts and humanities or legal studies to science and technology or nursing. Many allow you to study part-time or in the evenings. Most local colleges offer Access courses, so there’s probably a suitable one near you - and a number are available through distance learning. http://www.accesstohe.ac.uk/home/publications/caseStudies/NnekaAkudolu.asp Nneka was working as a waitress before she enrolled on the Access to HE course. She is now a Criminal Barrister. 1997: Access to Legal Studies, Tower Hamlets College 2001: LLB Law and Politics, Cardiff University 2002: Bar Vocational Course, called to the Bar 2007: Criminal Barrister, Chambers of Philip Singer QC 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eskay Jones Posted August 17, 2010 Report Share Posted August 17, 2010 That doesnt deter the fact I graduated from Brunel Uni with a 2.1 (Thanks Brunel) and managed to get into this University with ZERO qualifications other than having a C in Maths & English. from the ages of 16-19 I worked for my brothers Law Firm and got bored and decided to go to Uni. Rang Brunel asked if they had Networking/Multimedia Degrees. They said yes what qualifications do I have i lied and got in. My advice would be to RING DURING CLEARING. thats what I done.
