Overview

Young People, Communities and Youth Work is taught at a number of UK universities, and the entry terms are set department by department rather than nationally. It is a three year undergraduate degree, with the specialism widening as you move through the years.

Teaching in Social Work includes quantitative methods at most departments, which surprises applicants who expected essays alone.

The lowest English requirement we hold on this course is IELTS 6.0, and departments asking more than that usually expect a stronger academic record too. Tuition is £15,600 a year.

Send us your transcript and English result and we will list the departments that would consider you, with the entry condition on each.
