Can You Transfer Credits from Huxton to University?

The simple answer: yes.

One of the biggest questions students ask before starting with Huxton is whether their hard work will count when it's time to move on to university. The good news is simple: yes, you can transfer credits from Huxton to university. That's the whole point of our model.

How Credits Work

In the UK, degrees are measured in credits.

  • A full bachelor's = 360 credits
  • Year 1 = 120 credits (Level 4)
  • Year 2 = 120 credits (Level 5)
  • Year 3 = 120 credits (Level 6)

At Huxton, you earn 240 credits through our Level 4 and 5 qualifications — the same as completing the first two years at a traditional university. That means you arrive at a partner university ready to take on your final year (Level 6).

Our Accreditation: Qualifi and Ofqual

Huxton works in partnership with Qualifi, one of the UK's leading awarding organisations. Qualifi is well known in higher education and trusted by employers, professional bodies, and universities.

All Qualifi qualifications are fully regulated by Ofqual (the Office of Qualifications and Examinations Regulation). This means they sit on the official UK higher education framework and are fully recognised by universities.

As a licensed Qualifi centre, Huxton delivers qualifications at:

  • Level 3 – Pre-university foundation courses that prepare you for higher study
  • Level 4 – Equivalent to Year 1 of a UK bachelor's degree (120 credits)
  • Level 5 – Equivalent to Year 2 of a UK bachelor's degree (120 credits)
  • Level 7 – Equivalent to postgraduate study and master's-level learning

Every year, Huxton undergoes renewal and audit checks to ensure compliance, quality, and academic standards. This is why universities accept Huxton students: the credits are official, transferable, and trusted.

Where Can You Transfer?

Thanks to this accreditation, Huxton credits are recognised by a wide network of UK universities, as well as international campuses in Dubai, Mauritius, and Malaysia.

This means you can:

  • Complete your top-up year in the UK and graduate with a UK bachelor's
  • Or study at an international branch campus for a global experience and often lower living costs

What Do You Graduate With?

When you transfer to a university for your final year, you graduate with the exact same bachelor's degree as someone who studied all three years on campus.

No one can tell from your certificate whether you started at Huxton or went the traditional route. The qualification is identical, accredited, and globally recognised.

Why Transfer Through Huxton?

Transferring with Huxton isn't just possible — it's often the smarter choice:

  • Save £15,000+ on tuition (and even more as an international student)
  • Avoid debt and interest by studying Levels 4 & 5 with us for just £3,200
  • Stay flexible by studying online at your own pace before joining a university campus

With annual audits and compliance checks, you can be confident that your 240 credits with Huxton will carry you directly into the final year of a UK bachelor's degree.
