When you achieve an accredited qualification through iQualify UK, you can continue your studies and obtain an MBA or Master’s or Bachelor’s degree, and the good news is that your qualification means you can often start part way through the degree, as you are already studying at the relevant academic level. You therefore save both time and money! There are a range of university progression options available. These range from enhanced entry which gives you exemptions for areas you have already covered in your diploma (usually referred to as accreditation for or recognition of prior learning) to what are called ‘top up’ degrees where you start at a later stage of the degree (but all cases you still obtain exactly the same qualification). You can choose between study in the UK and studying online (with some options involving a short stay in the UK).

Thus if you have obtained your qualification you can continue your studies at most UK universities, although we recommend the following combinations (note all fees shown are for international i.e. non UK/EU students):

Note that all universities will assess each potential student individually on their qualification, CV/Resume and personal statement and so acceptance cannot be guaranteed.

All degree certificates through these packages are identical to the certificates issued to those students who study the whole qualification on campus and do not mention online. Successful students are invited to attend the university’s normal graduation ceremony.
