Widening Access

Widening Access

We're committed to supporting students from all backgrounds to access higher education.

We know that for some students, university education can seem like an impossible dream. Maybe you don't think it's the place for you, like you wouldn't belong. Maybe no one else in your family has been or you haven't had the same opportunities in life up to now. We're here to make sure you can access higher education, whatever your background.

Our founders helped pave the way for women to go to university and today we're following in their footsteps to break down barriers. We're proud of our groundbreaking history but we know that helping to create a more level playing field is even more essential today.

We're out in schools and colleges, talking to you about the amazing opportunities of university and crucially how we can help you access it, whether it's with contextual offers, financial support or helping you understand all your options, and give advice and encouragement.
