Our award-winning small class tutorials ensure every student is known by name and supported throughout their studies, including by dedicated personal tutors.
As pioneers of the two-year degree, we offer a condensed version of the traditional three-year degree, meaning you can gain a full honours degree and complete your studies a whole year earlier. Alternatively, you can complete both your undergraduate and master’s degree with us in just three years: saving you time and money.
We also launched the UK’s first private Medical School, which recently secured General Medical Council (GMC) accreditation. The GMC commended us for our ‘excellent professional, academic and pastoral support that extends throughout the University and clinical learning environments’.
The University’s dedication to teaching quality and student life has resulted in it being rated highly by its students and in national surveys. We are proud to have achieved an 82% satisfaction rate in the National Student Survey 2021 (NSS). As well as this, the Good University Guide 2021 ranked us top 10 in England for Student Satisfaction.
