What is a Top-Up Degree?

A top-up degree is a qualification that allows students who have already completed a foundation degree or equivalent qualification to 'top up' their existing qualification to a full bachelor's degree. This means that students can build on their existing knowledge and skills to achieve a higher level of qualification.

Benefits of a Top-Up Degree:

Benefits	Explanation
Time-saving	Top-up degrees are usually shorter in duration compared to starting a new bachelor's degree from scratch.
Cost-effective	Since students are only completing the remaining credits needed for a full degree, top-up degrees can be more affordable.
Career advancement	Having a full bachelor's degree can open up more job opportunities and lead to career progression.
Specialization	Top-up degrees often allow students to specialize in a particular area of their field of study.

Overall, a top-up degree is a great option for individuals who want to further their education and enhance their career prospects without having to start a new degree from the beginning.
