You can find out more about this topic on the gov.uk website.
What are Degree Apprenticeships?
Degree Apprenticeships are developed between the Government, Employers and Universities. They’re suitable for anyone over the age of 18, whether you’re already in your chosen career, or are just starting out on your career.
Degree Apprenticeships are not paid for through Tuition fee loans but are paid for through your employer and the Government, making them free to you the Apprentice!
Depending on which Apprenticeship course you take, Degree Apprenticeships take anything up to 5 years to complete (this depends on the level of the Apprenticeship).
The Government’s Office for Students website & UCAS provide further guidance on degree apprentices for potential apprentices and for your employer.
