Academically Excluded

Hii There, so I just wanted to know if you can continue studying towards a degree that you have been academically excluded from at a different institution?
We're going to need a lot more context than that to have any hope of giving you anything resembling a useful answer.

If you were excluded from a professional/vocational course on fitness to practise grounds then this is likely to be picked up elsewhere and be an issue.

For a random general academic degree where you just did badly for whatever reason and want to study elsewhere, then while you still need to declare your previous study in your UCAS application (assuming you are applying in the UK), it is technically possible. Some unis may have concerns about why you performed poorly on the course previously elsewhere though.

There are probably a lot of other situations which might have somewhat different outcomes depending on the why, where, what, and when.

Thank you so much for your response, it was an accounting degree. It was some what helpful ☺️.

Might depend on the exact reasons but I suspect probably would fall into the latter category.

Note though you don't need to do an accounting degree to go into a career in accountancy anyway so it's not a major barrier if there are other degrees you may find more interesting/enjoyable, and a switch of subject may suggest that your initial course issues were a "false start" and thus lessen concerns, possibly.
