Departments of philosophy are keen to recruit students who have pursued independent study of the subject. However, they will naturally prefer those who can offer hard evidence of their ability and potential. All Pathways students receive a report from the Director of Studies on completing their program which can be used to support their application for an undergraduate or postgraduate degree course. Students can also request a confidential reference in support of university applications."
