Why study
with CCN HE?

At City College Norwich HE, we recognise that when it comes to university level study, a one-size fits all approach doesn’t work for everyone.

Our courses have one crucial difference to those you will find in many larger universities: they have been designed to fit your life and career aspirations. If you choose to study with us, you will benefit from:

Flexible study

Our teaching is condensed, usually into two days a week, to allow you to combine your studies with work and other commitments you may have.
A local and affordable option

Most of our students are from the Norfolk and Suffolk area, attracted by the many benefits of studying close to home.

What our students
say about us

Results from the 2024 National Student Survey (NSS), which is carried out by the Office for Students (OfS), showed high levels of satisfaction amongst students on our university-level courses.

For example;

96% of our students said staff were good at explaining things
94% of our students said staff often made the subject engaging
93% said their course challenged them to achieve their best work
92% of our students felt free to express their ideas and opinions
92% of our students were positive that their course developed their knowledge and skills needed for the future

Great support

Another distinctive feature of our courses is our smaller class sizes. This ensures you get all the support you need throughout your course. A real benefit of our smaller, specialist community is that your lecturers and pastoral support are accessible to you and available to help when you need them.
Expert professional tuition

Our lecturers are experts in providing excellent academic and vocational teaching. They maintain close links with their sector, so that you benefit from learning that is relevant and fully up-to-date for your chosen career.

Outstanding progression
to employment and further study
