For applicants who are unsure that they will achieve the above UCAS tariff, Newman University offers BSc (Hons) Sports Coaching with Foundation Year, which enables such applicants to access a university degree via a four-year route. Upon successful completion of their foundation year, students will progress to Year 1 of a named degree. Whilst not a condition of entry onto the Foundation Year, students wishing to follow particular named routes with additional entry requirements, will need to meet these requirements before they make the transition from their foundation year to year 1.
