Advice on the possibility of transferring from CertHE Law with Uni of Essex to a law

Hi, I am researching whether it is possible to study CertHE Law at Essex uni online and then transfer to an LLB at another university.
Has anyone actually experienced a similar route?
And if you could share which university you went to in the UK, that would be very helpful.
Is there a reason you couldn't just apply directly to the other law course in the first place? Or to undertake level 3 qualifications (e.g. A-levels, IB, Access to HE diploma) which won't impact your entitlement to funding from Student Finance?

Thanks for the reply. I'm a non-native UK resident and I'm already studying CertHE Law for financial reasons, but I'd like to consider the possibilities after this course is over. :smile:

It may well be possible, if you are eligible for funding from Student Finance England then a CertHE may affect your entitlement for full-time funding.

But yes you can potentially go from a CertHE at one uni to a BA at another (that's what I did, but I'm studying part time on both courses so under a different funding model :smile: ).
