“After attending many university open days, I chose to Step Up to a degree at Newcastle College because the Fashion, Retail and Enterprise FdA was the only course I really liked the sound of!” – Isabelle
Max
“I think the best advice I’d give to my younger self would be to stop caring what everyone thinks. I didn’t initially do sport because I didn’t want to be judged or talked out of it. It’s a competitive industry but I love it! I’m so glad I did this course. The tutors are so supportive and I’ve had lots of opportunities.” – Max
Ewan
“I’ve already been here for two years and I know most of the tutors now. I was looking into university courses but then I found the courses here were better for me. I wanted to stay somewhere I knew I would enjoy my course and get along with my tutors.” – Ewan
Kaitlyn
“I actually think the University Centre has better facilities than other unis. I work in a science lab part-time alongside my course and the College has everything I need to learn and is really flexible. The tutors and HEST Team have supported my since I started at Newcastle College at Level 3 and I didn’t want to leave that because the support has been fantastic.” – Kaitlyn
Bradley
“I chose to study my degree because it really interests me. I love sport and I decided to ‘Step Up’ to a degree because I want to study something I’m passionate about.” – Bradley
Steph
“I decided to Step Up with Newcastle College because I really enjoy motivating people and I think it is something I can make a career out of. I am studying Applied Exercise, Health and Fitness and I am really interested in the health and wellbeing side of the course!” – Steph
