BA (Hons) Business with Foundation Year

Do you want to learn about the basics of business and management, but you’re not sure if you qualify for university study?

Arden’s BA (Hons) Business is available to study with an integrated Foundation Year. Studied over four years, this programme is perfect to prepare you for success at the undergraduate level. The foundation year will equip you with the essential skills needed to embark on your undergraduate degree in Business, including basic numeracy, academic and research skills.

  • The four-year route with an integrated foundation year is perfect for those with a desire to return to education or seeking to develop key study skills in their first year.
  • This BA (Hons) Business undergraduate degree includes an integrated foundation year, an additional year of study which will prepare you with the relevant skills and knowledge to continue on to your full degree.

Entry Requirements

Candidates are required to submit a personal statement (of between 350-550 words) or interview demonstrating an ability to study the programme, taking into account:

  • Their motivation for undertaking the programme
  • Relevant work experience
  • Prior qualifications
  • References

If your previous learning was not in English, you will also need to have IELTS 6.0 or equivalent (no less than 5.5 in any element).

Next steps

Applying for this course takes just a few minutes and is the first step towards gaining your qualification. You can begin your online application now and one of our friendly Admissions Advisors will be in touch to discuss your study options.

Course Structure & Modules

Blended Learning at Arden University

What is Blended Learning in Arden University?

Do you want to study for a degree, but feel like you just don’t have the time to fit it into your life? Arden University’s Blended Learning courses combine innovative online learning with traditional, face-to-face classes to give you a more flexible way to study.

How does it work?

The face-to-face hours are delivered as a part-time course would be, but with the additional independent online learning, you can still complete your degree in 3 years*. This Blended approach means you can study anytime, anywhere and your tutors and support teams can be contacted outside of the classroom, online or over the phone.

When can I study?

Requiring just 8 hours of classes a week at your chosen UK study centre, you will have the opportunity to select when you want to learn: weekdays, evenings or weekends.

  • Weekdays: 2 days per week either 9.00–13.00 or 13.30-17.30
  • Evenings: 2 evenings per week 17.30–21.30
  • Weekends: Saturdays
Where can I study?

With 5 Arden study centres across the UK, in Birmingham, London and Manchester, we believe we can offer a study option that suits most lifestyles.

So, whether you’re a full-time parent, striving to be an employee of the month, or just don’t want the traditional study methods offered by other universities, Blended Learning at Arden University offers all the flexibility and support you need to fit study around your life.

Take a look at the courses on offer and talk to one of the Ulearn’s course advisors through our Live Chat function, or complete an enquiry form and someone will be in touch.

How much will it cost?

The course fee is only £6,000 per year which is £3,000 per year cheaper than the rest of the UK Universities.

The course is around £3,000 a year cheaper than going to University full time and it is funded by the Government scheme called student finance, that means that you will not have to pay anything upfront for the course.

Once you start earning more than £25,000 per year you will pay back from as little as £30 per month and if you no longer earn more than £25,000, this transaction will stop automatically.
