“Thanks to my time at Northern College I am about to start my degree. I am one step closer to becoming a social worker.” - Kamisha

Outside distractions and other life commitments could have made me fail my course and that's why I not only enjoyed but relied on staying on site as a residential student.

I am now reaping the rewards from the counselling course and look forward to continuing my studies. Thank you so very, very much for your enduring support, fantastic teaching and boundless patience!

It's a life changing place. I started the access course in 2013 without a qualification to my name and not much hope. Last year I started my PhD. I'm now a different person.
