Still wondering?

What care professionals ask us before enrolling.

What does “top-up” actually mean?

The final year of a bachelor’s degree, on its own. Your Level 5 qualification counts as the first two years, so you join at year three and graduate with the full BSc (Hons).

Is it a real degree?

Yes. A BSc (Hons) Health and Care Management from Arden University, a UK university. The award is Arden’s own, and carries no note of where the earlier years were done.

Do I need to sit exams?

No. Assessment is through assignments, essays, presentations, case studies and portfolios of work, linked to real health and care practice.

Who is this course for?

People with a Level 5 qualification in health or social care who want the full degree: team leaders, senior carers, coordinators and managers across health and care services.

What if my qualification is not an exact match?

Arden University considers applications case by case. A personal statement is required, and references or evidence of relevant experience may be requested.

Do I need an English test?

Not if your previous study was taught in English. If it was not, Arden asks for IELTS 6.0 with no element below 5.5, or an equivalent.
