Overview

A year zero foundation programme, designed for mature students who have typically been out of formal education for some time or who have taken non-traditional qualifications, which leads to access onto a Veterinary Science BVSc programme. The University of Liverpool, in collaboration with local FE partners, has developed a year zero foundation programme for Home students that leads to access onto a variety of vocational Health Studies programmes. Our Foundation to Human and Animal Health Professions (Veterinary Science) course is for students seeking entry to undertake the Veterinary Science BVSc (D100) programme. Students seeking entry to Veterinary Science will study at Carmel College, St Helens.Carmel Collegeis located in St Helens, about nine miles from the main University campus. The College offers small class sizes and high standards of academic achievement. This programme is specifically targeted at Home mature and non-traditional students, who typically have taken a break from studies. Please note that we will not consider applications from prospective students who have multiple UCAS applications for a variety of programmes, as this does not demonstrate a clear commitment.
