AccessHE Uni Connect: Prepare to Progress Programme (P2P)
Do you want to find out more about studying your subject at university? 
Are you considering your options post-school?
Want to strengthen your UCAS application?
The AccessHE Uni Connect Prepare to Progress (P2P) programme offers Year 12s and Year 13s (including incoming Y12s from September) a taster of higher education (HE) study in Law and Sociology.
The P2P will assist you in your exam subjects and increase your confidence as you prepare to transition into post-secondary study.
Strengthen your UCAS application by adding P2P
Knowing what to put on your UCAS application can be daunting, however UCAS now provides a field where you can enter ‘activities in preparation for higher education that you have participated in’, and your attendance at the P2P sessions detailed could be one of these!
What does the P2P involve?
Step 1: Complete an online subject Masterclass which comprises a video tutorial (c.30 minutes) delivered by a University of West London academic followed by short exercises.
Step 2: After completing the above online Masterclass, you then attend the live-streamed Zoom session delivered by an AccessHE Student Advocate in the subject strand they are currently studying. In this session you will have the opportunity to ask them questions about the subject Masterclass tutorial and the short exercises you completed, the course they are studying, what it is like to study their subject at university, and about university life in general. P.S. Don’t forget to bring your completed short exercises to this session!
