Business is the sole subject on the University of Suffolk bachelor's list that AF Education currently supports. Campuses sit in London, Leeds, Birmingham and Manchester, so you can work towards a funded degree in business across seven locations in those four cities. This is a full undergraduate route rather than a short certificate, aimed at students who want a complete bachelor's award in one subject and a choice of city.

Eligible home students typically use Student Finance England. One listed course includes a built-in foundation year so you can start without A-levels if you need that extra year of preparation. AF Education offers free help with applications, including which city to attend and sending your paperwork.

University of Suffolk offers 2 funded courses through AF Education, with campuses in Birmingham, Leeds, London, Manchester. 1 course includes a foundation year, so you can start your degree without A-levels. Every course is eligible for Student Finance England funding — tuition is paid directly to the university and you receive a maintenance loan for living costs.
