Transferring to 蜜桃AV or applying to join a course in year two or three

We welcome applications from students who have previously studied at other institutions and wish to transfer onto a 蜜桃AV course.

We facilitate Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) which enables credit awarded from one institution to contribute to a 蜜桃AV award, subject to an application process. Students who provide evidence of prior learning can be considered for exemption from certain units (Individual Unit Exemption) or years of study (Direct Entry). Recognition of Prior Learning is also a required part of the application process for our Top-up degrees.

蜜桃AV distinguishes between two types of RPL:

RPCL: Recognition of Prior Certificated Learning (from formal education)
RPEL: Recognition of Prior Experiential Learning (from substantial relevant work/life experiences) You can find our full Recognition of Prior Learning Policy under 鈥楢dmissions鈥� on our important information pages.

How to make your application

If you would like to apply for entry to the second or final year of one of our undergraduate courses, please submit your application through UCAS.

Please indicate which year you are applying to join when filling out the 鈥楥hoices鈥� section of your application by entering the appropriate point of entry:

1 (first year / FHEQ Level 4)
2 (second year / FHEQ Level 5)
3 (final year / FHEQ Level 6)

You will also need 蜜桃AV鈥檚 institution code (B50) and the UCAS code for your chosen course. If you are applying for entry to one of our full-time top-up courses, you will also need to make your application through UCAS. As these courses are only one year long, your point of entry will be 鈥�1鈥�. If you鈥檙e applying to study one of our part-time top-up courses, please submit your application through our website by clicking 鈥楢pply now鈥� on the relevant course page.

We would recommend applying as early as possible to allow us time to review your application and reach a decision.

What happens next

Once we receive your application, we will contact you asking you to provide the following information as evidence of your prior learning:

A course handbook or programme specification that outlines the intended learning outcomes (ILOs) of each module/unit covered by your course. A transcript confirming the modules/units and grades you have already achieved. If you are part way through your studies, we will ask you to provide an interim transcript. An academic reference from the institution. We may ask you to provide the following additional information, depending on the course you are applying for: Evidence of the number of placement or practice hours you have completed to date (for some courses in our Faculty of Health and Social Sciences).
A portfolio of your work.
If you are applying to join the final year of one of our sandwich courses with a compulsory placement year (Level P), you may also be required to apply for placement exemption.

We would recommend contacting your personal tutor or course administrator for support with gathering this information.

How we will assess your application

Once we鈥檝e received all of your information, we鈥檒l refer your application to the Programme Leader so they can assess your eligibility.

Depending on the course you have applied for, you may also be invited to an interview.

Please be advised that applications involving Recognition of Prior Learning can take slightly longer to assess than applications for entry to year one of our courses.

If you have any questions, please contact our Future Students Enquiry Team on +44 (0)1202 961916 or by emailing [email protected] and they will put you in touch with the Admissionst Team.
