University Partners and Progression Routes

Over the past 20 years, we have developed unique partnerships with a range of leading institutions to provide our students with the very best choices available. Universities know that, year after year, students from Bellerbys are among the best prepared and most likely to succeed of any in the UK. Here's what a few of them have to say about Bellerbys students:

"I have been impressed by the graduates we have received from Bellerbys College. They seem well prepared, both academically and socially, for the rigours of university life, of which they take full advantage."
Dr Gwyn Brown, Dean of International Students & Director, International Office, University of Surrey

"The experience of the University has been that students who have met the criteria set by the University and have accepted their place at Loughborough have proved to be well prepared and suited to the degree programmes here."
Jonathan Clapham, Deputy Director, International Office, Loughborough University

"Our experience of students completing Bellerbys programmes has been good. Every one of the students who transferred from Bellerbys has successfully completed the programme."
Professor Aiden Berry, Head of the University of Brighton Business School

Foundation Programme University Partners

Successful completion of the Foundation programme guarantees you a place at one of our 50 partner universities. Over 400 students graduated onto UK degree courses from the Bellerbys Foundation programme in 2005. 35% of those students took up places at the UK's top 20 universities.

Higher Education Fair

Bellerbys College assists its students in every step of the university application process. One way Bellerbys helps is by holding an annual Higher Education Fair at the college, where students have the opportunity to meet representatives from many UK universities.

At the fair students may ask specific questions and obtain information about the universities, such as the range of courses offered, the University's location, where they might sit in various league tables, social and housing facilities, links to business, careers advice, research facilities available and the support they offer to international students.

The visiting University representatives are on hand to answer these questions and can offer further details, for example, about specific course content and can give insight into post-graduate study and careers advice.

The day also encourages students to start taking responsibility for their own progression in terms of which academic course or profession they are most interested in. The short film below was taken at the 2009 Bellerbys College Higher Education Fair.
