Yes, at Academy Online Learning we fully understand that personal circumstances can change unexpectedly, and sometimes students may need to pause their studies temporarily.

Our Access to Higher Education (HE) Diploma courses are designed with flexibility in mind. If you encounter unforeseen personal issues, you have the option to freeze your course. This allows you to save your remaining study days and resume your studies when you are ready, without losing the time you have invested so far.

Taking a study break can provide the space and time needed to deal with personal matters while protecting your academic progress. We aim to be supportive and accommodating wherever possible to help you continue working towards your qualifications when the time is right.

If you find yourself needing a study break, please contact your personal tutor or our Student Support Team. They will explain the simple steps involved in freezing your course and help you plan your return to study when you are ready.

At Academy Online Learning, we are committed to offering a learning experience that fits your life, not the other way around.
