Hi guys,

 

Just found this post, I am also enrolled on the course and had similar issues as others.

 

Has anyone received anything yet? Had no course info through at all and find all the passing around between the various sites myerscough/uclan/bloom/office etc a bit confusing as don't know where info is going to come from.

Course info/structure/module content is on the internet - or at least was last year.

You need to have enrolled to access bloom for the info/learning material & college email. You will get posted info several times a week once term starts.

If you haven't enrolled yet ring myerscough 01995 642222 & select enrolment option & start the ball rolling cos you won't get anywhere until you have. The enrolment process is basically like entering into a contract with myerscough, which is a smaller college under the wing of the uni of central lancs (UCLAN).

 

Then they will invoice you. It is split into 2 terms or semesters as they call it, & you can have the option of only paying for one if you pull out the course - with enough notice. So you arnt billed for the whole year if you don't end up doing it all.

 

Good luck, keep at it. I'm in my third year, & I've read/heard mixed views but I've had quite a positive experience so far & it does seem to improve/get smoother each year ... Or maybe you just get used to it!

Oh & bloom is the online classroom you log into to access the learning materials. You need your student ID or student email address & password to do so.

George, which reading lists do you want specifically?

 

I'm on the course so have them all but there is a different list for each module and don't just want to throw a hundred book titles at you if they aren't relevant.

Hi guys.

I'd be interested in doing the foundation degree, maybe starting this September. What would the minimum hours a week required to do the course? Don't know if it would be doable with running a business as well?
