January start

Whether you have non-traditional qualifications, want to change your subjects, have had a break from education and wish to return or want a change of career – the foundation years at Keele provide an opportunity for those with diverse backgrounds to access an honours degree.

Adopting a blended learning approach, the January start is particularly useful for students wishing to return to education following time out of studying, or who are seeking a flexible approach to their studies.

Our January start is available across most of our Science, Humanities, Social Science and Business courses.

Please note, our January entry Foundation Year offers a condensed programme (January-September). Upon successful completion, you will progress onto your degree programme in September.

Induction week for our January 2023 entry Foundation Year begins on Monday 9 January 2023.
