Why study with Honsbridge Sixth?

Firstly, we have a unique and affordable A-Level programme. For the same price (RM 80-90k) as many local A-Level courses you get 
  • 1 year in the UK at Pembrokeshire College, Homestay accommodation included.
  • Highly qualified, oxbridge educated staff, both in Malaysia and the UK.
  • Dedicated staff to help with your UCAS application to the UK Universities.
  • An extra hour of 1:1 time with your teachers in every one of your subjects once in the UK.
  • All examination fees included within the price.
  • Assistance with booking flights and visa arrangements.

You will also be based in the UK in your second year when you are applying to Universities, this has major benefits compared to studying in Malaysia.
  • You are able to visit many university campuses and open days to really get a feel for where you will be spending the next three or four years of your life
  • For Oxford and Cambridge, and Medical Interviews, you will be in the UK already, so will be able to perform at your best, not jet-lagged and sleepy from your 13-18 hour flight.
  • Interviews for Medicine are spread throughout the year, this would require multiple trips to the UK.
  • You will already have been gradually accustomed to UK culture, from the safety and security of the Homestay programme.
  • Free medical care in the UK - as a full time registered student at a UK institution you are eligible to receive free medical consultation with a GP and hospital treatment through the UK National Health Service.
  • Access to a 24 hour emergency help-line
  • A dedicated International Office to help you with accommodation, guidance and student welfare.
  • Full access to the College's extensive computing and library facilities.

How are we able to offer such amazing value?

Simple. We are partnered with a UK Government funded Sixth Form College, the government regulates the fees that they are able to charge to foreign students so, in place the unregulated private colleges which can charge up to £ 20 - 30k GBP for a single years study, the tuition fees are set at £6250 for the A-Level Plus programme, which is offered as a free upgrade to Honsbridge Students at the normal A-Level price of £5250, a further saving of £1000.

Honsbridge Sixth offers excellent value, our small, dedicated, highly qualified staff, and small class sizes allow us to concentrate on ensuring that we offer the very best in personalised learning so you can achieve at your best.
