After hearing good things about Sunderland College, Ellie-Ingham enrolled on an Access to Higher Education (Health) course, with the hopes of becoming a paramedic. With the full support and help of her tutor, Ellie-Ingham changed her career path and is now studying nursing at university.
Access to Higher Education Diploma (Health).
My friend pointed me in the right direction.
I know people who have studied at Sunderland College and they gave amazing feedback.
Learning! I enjoyed learning new things so much, everything was taught with so much depth.
My lecturer Amy was fantastic, very supportive and was always willing to help. Amy supported me throughout my whole course including health conditions as I was poorly for some time throughout the course. Closer to the end of my course I decided to change my career path from a paramedic to a nurse, Amy helped me make my decision with full support!
Great! Friendly, helpful staff. The ladies in the dining area were all so lovely too, it made lunch time more enjoyable!
We had visits from previous Access students who came in and answered all of our questions. This helped me a lot.
It is hard to pin point just once piece of advice because I received so much, but from the tutor who helps with assignments.
Prepare! Be organised, and make friends.
Achieving, helpful, exciting!
I am currently studying nursing at university.
I would not be going to university if I had not studied with you. Sunderland College helped me achieve all ambitions!
