New pathways give Qualifi graduates greater choice and more efficient routes to American bachelor’s and master’s degrees.
Qualifi is pleased to announce the expansion of its university progression opportunities in the United States.
Through new progression arrangements with accredited American universities, graduates of eligible Qualifi qualifications can progress towards selected bachelor’s and master’s degree programmes with recognised credit or advanced standing.
For students, this creates a more direct route to degree completion. Rather than starting again or repeating comparable learning, eligible graduates can build on the knowledge and qualifications they have already achieved.
Access to a Leading Global Study Destination
The United States remains one of the world’s leading destinations for international students, recognised for the diversity of its universities, programmes and study formats.
Qualifi’s expansion into the US gives graduates access to a wider range of academic opportunities within one of the world’s largest and most influential higher-education systems.
Students can now consider American degree pathways alongside Qualifi’s established progression opportunities in the United Kingdom and other international markets. This gives learners greater freedom to compare destinations, programmes, costs and delivery options before deciding where to complete their education.
Save Time and Reduce the Cost of Your Degree
Recognised academic credit is one of the most important benefits of Qualifi’s new US progression routes. Graduates of eligible Level 4 and Level 5 qualifications may receive up to two years of credit towards selected related bachelor’s degrees. This can significantly reduce the number of courses, tuition fees and years of study remaining.
Eligible graduates of relevant Level 7 qualifications can also progress towards selected master’s degrees with advanced standing, allowing their previous postgraduate-level learning to contribute towards the final university award.
Depending on the applicable pathway, students may benefit from:
- A shorter route to degree completion
- Lower remaining tuition and study costs
- Less repetition of subjects already completed
- Greater flexibility in choosing a programme
- Earlier access to career advancement or further study
This means that a Qualifi qualification is not left behind when a student progresses. It becomes an important part of the learner’s continuing academic journey.
More Choice in a Changing Education Market
Choosing where to study is a major decision, and the best destination will not be the same for every learner.
Tuition costs, visa requirements, career goals, programme availability and personal circumstances can all influence where and how a student chooses to complete a degree.
By expanding progression opportunities into the United States, Qualifi gives graduates more options and less dependence on a single country or university system.
Learners may be able to choose between:
- American bachelor’s and master’s degree pathways
- UK university progression routes
- Online and flexible degree programmes
- Campus-based international study
- Options designed for working professionals
For some students, studying on an American campus may be the preferred route. Others may choose an online programme that allows them to continue living and working in their home country.
The benefit is choice: students can select the pathway that best matches their ambitions, finances and circumstances.
A Qualification That Can Take You Further
Qualifi qualifications are designed to create opportunities for continued academic and professional progression. The expansion of the US progression network strengthens that promise by giving eligible graduates clearer routes towards American bachelor’s and master’s degrees while recognising the value of their previous achievements. For students, the message is simple:
More destinations. More degree options. Less unnecessary repetition. A more affordable route to graduation.
