Parents/Carers: Student Finance Through practical and illustrated examples we steer parents/carers through the intricacies of the student finance system in a clear transparent and impartial way. Our commitment to supporting students access to higher education means that we have developed, for 2012 entry onwards, the A2C Transition Programme. This innovative support package is for students from partner schools who choose to apply to us. In addition to transition support there is the potential for a reduced grade offer to students who complete the A2C module. The module is designed to help students develop learning styles and prepare for all aspects of university life. In order to receive the reduced entry offer, students must complete the A2C module which is designed to help students make the transition from school/college to university style learning and involves completion of the following: • Study support module to help with academic writing skills • A student shadowing experience, which will help students find out more about the style of teaching they can expect at university • An essay specific to the course applied for which will be set and marked by university tutors. (An extended project on a relevant topic may be accepted instead) To be eligible the student must attend a target Widening Participation secondary school and should: • Be from a family with little or no experience of higher education • Have a household income of below £25,000 • Be sponsored by a nominated teacher from the target school A successful A2C applicant will receive two offers from the University of Chichester, the standard one and an alternative A2C offer. The A2C offer is a reduction of up to two A level grades (e.g. BBB rather than AAB) or 40 UCAS tariff points. The grade reduction in the offer from the University is not guaranteed for all subjects, but the successful completion of the A2C scheme will be taken into account when A2C offers are made. Successful attainment requires a pass in the essay, completion of the study support module and attendance of at least one student shadow session in their chosen subject. A2C students will attend an enhanced induction day to offer information, advice and guidance prior to their first semester.
