What are top-up degrees?
I have seen a lot of UK Universities offering Top-up degrees for 1-2 years. May I ask what are those? Thanks!

They are the 3rd-4th year of an honors degree for people who do Foundation degrees. It enables them to top up to honors
Just to add to this, there is a difference between a foundation year and a foundation degree. Some people seem to think that you can do a foundation year and then do a top-up degree of one year and thus graduate with a full degree in 2 years - you can't.
