About Pre-Access
In certain circumstances, it may be possible to consider recent full-time study (i.e. within the last three to five years) as pre-access. In such cases, you could be considered SWAP eligible; however, you would need to have been out of full-time education for at least three or five years prior to commencing the pre-access course. To be considered as pre-access, courses must not be higher than SCQF level 5.
