3 YEAR DEGREE

You only go to uni once so make the most of it and study an undergraduate degree over three years. It’s a great way to experience everything student life has to offer and fit your studies around other commitments.

An undergraduate degree is usually studied over the course of three years. At the end of your studies, you will be awarded a degree from Lancaster University, which is highly sought after by employers and recognised and valued all over the world.

On the three year undergraduate degree, you’ll study 4 blocks, each 6 weeks long. This gives you lots of breaks throughout the year to focus on other things, whether that’s travelling, working or playing sports.

Also, on all our three year degree programmes your timetable will be fixed throughout your studies. This means you will either be in morning classes or afternoon classes from start to finish.

 

What's the difference between a BA and BSc?

You’ll notice all our undergraduate degrees start with either a BA or BSc. BA stands for Bachelor or Arts and normally encompasses subjects within the humanities, social science or creative arts. A BSc is short for Bachelor of Science and usually indicates a focus on science, mathematics or technology. At UA92, we offer both BA and BSc degrees across Business, Sport, Media and Digital.

What does Hons stand for?

An honours degree (Hons) shows you’ve completed a dissertation or project which is considered a higher level of academic achievement. Graduates with an honours degree have a significant advantage when starting out in their chosen careers or progressing to postgraduate study.

What are the entry requirements for a three year undergraduate degree?

The standard entry requirements for a degree course at UA92 is 104 UCAS points.*

  • UCAS Points: 104
  • A Levels: BCC (104 equivalent)
  • BTEC National Extended Diploma: DMM
  • BTEC Diploma: D*D
  • T Levels: M
  • Scottish Advanced Highers: AB
  • IB: 28 points with 14 from Higher Level Subjects

However, each application is assessed on an individual basis, taking into consideration a wide range of factors. If you would like to know more about applying to UA92 or have any questions about our entry requirements, please contact our Student Futures Team.

How often will I need to attend classes?

It takes three full academic years to complete the three year degree. Each academic year is split into six blocks, of which you study four. Each block is 6 weeks long therefore the three year degree requires a total of 24 weeks of study per year.

You will get a short break of 1-2 weeks between blocks with a longer break of approximately 12 weeks at the end of each academic year.

When can I start a three year undergraduate degree?

We have six entry points throughout the year. Therefore, you can start a three year degree in September, November, January, February, April or June.
