Why Choose New College?
Affordable Fees
Most universities charge around £9,000 per year. In comparison our HNCs and HNDs cost £5,500 (Sept 2018 entry), keeping the costs low without compromising on quality teaching.
Quality Teaching
Our lecturers are highly qualified and have a huge bank of professional experience. They know exactly how the skills and knowledge they teach transfer into the real world and help our students to do precisely that.
Convenient Location
Having access to university courses right on your doorstep allows you to easily fit your studies around your existing life with family and friends as well as any work commitments.
Strong Partnerships With Local Universities
Our Foundation Degrees are run in partnership with Bath Spa University and the University of Gloucestershire, providing local students with more opportunities to stay local whilst gaining a university accredited degree.
Great Student to Teacher Ratio
Our classes are small, providing you with more one-on-one time with tutors and creating an really supportive environment where you feel relaxed and comfortable with your fellow students.
Outstanding Student Support
We pride ourselves on putting our students at the centre of everything we do. That means that our team of tutors, learning support assistants, disability officers, careers advisers, counsellors and chaplains are all here to offer confidential advice and support whenever you need it.
