Yes you can study a degree at colleges. Sparsholt is a clear example who do FE and HE so do the likes of BTECs and degrees.
The college next to my 6th form does more vocational courses. Some are equivilent to a-levels, but then you can progress to do degrees in art, design aswell as other things. They also do some kind of foundation courses, which you then top up with a year at a proper uni.

But they're not certified by the actual college. The college is part of UCS, which is who certifies them I think.

My college is starting degrees in business and Social Care (or something, not sure).

All they do is they do the course but it's officially at another uni, like ours are run at College XYZ but the business degrees have University College London plastered across it, and the counselling degrees have Stafford uni on them.
