After successful completion of MSL, students are granted an automatic right to enter all maths-intensive degrees at Harbour. Space.

We welcome you to start your transformative journey at any point during the year, be it autumn, winter, spring or summer. Once you receive your acceptance letter, you can start any upcoming 3-week module in your chosen programme. All the missed modules can be easily caught up at the start of next year.
