The College is committed to offering high quality Higher Education programmes that have a strong vocational focus and have been designed to give our graduates the best possible chance to succeed in increasingly tough job markets.
Our Higher Education programmes are delivered in partnership with world-class Universities, with many of our students pursuing careers within their specialism or progressing onto postgraduate study with prestigious providers. We also pride ourselves in being a friendly, inclusive University community.
Recently confirmed as offering a high quality student academic experience by the Quality Assurance Agency (QAA). Our Colleges are the perfect local centre to study for your degree.
If you live in Kent or South East London, we're really easy to reach via car or public transport, meaning that you can save money on university accommodation costs and travel. Plus, you'll have more time work and study as well as maintain your current personal lifestyle.
Our undergraduate programmes start from just £5,950 and we offer you the same standard of education at a substantially lower cost than university!
Having the required entry grades is beneficial, especially for those who have just finished college or sixth-form. However, your application is encouraged if you are a mature student (aged 21 and over), without the required entry grades, but with relevant industry experience.
We have a dedicated Higher Education study area at our Dartford Campus for our Access and Higher Education students. The Higher Education study area is a great place to study and meet other students on different undergraduate programmes.
Our students appreciate the level of support that is available to them from their lecturers and all staff on campus. We’re smaller than most universities, which means better support for you.
We have teamed up with Arriva buses, to offer you 10% off your travel to the campuses. Plus, if you live in the London boroughs, you can get up to 30% off your travel with a Student Oyster Card and Dartford Station is now in the Oyster Card area in zone 8.
If you drive, we have loads of free parking. If you don’t, we have a FREE Shuttle Bus, which regularly runs from Dartford Station to our Dartford campus.
North Kent College does not operate halls of residence; however, the surrounding area offers a number of accommodation options to suit the needs of our students.
