If you don't have the standard entry requirements

  • And you feel you missed out on education
  • And you want to realise your potential
  • Or explore society
  • And investigate social change
  • And discover how to study

then BA Social Sciences at Leeds is the programme for you.

BA Social Science is an extended four-year degree programme, designed for prospective students that do not have the standard entry requirements.

The first year of the programme forms a 'level zero' foundation year. Delivered in a friendly and supportive environment, this level offers students a unique combination of academic and skill-based modules, blending a firm academic grounding in social science with study skills and information technology.

Successful completion of the foundation year will allow students to progress on to some of the most popular degree programmes within the faculty, including Sociology and Social Policy, Education, Law, Politics and Social Work.

We also consider applications for this course all year round.
