Chaplaincy Studies and Community Work: Additional information

Our Chaplaincy Studies and Community Work Programmes often involve a considerable amount of placement work or other experience and so we will discuss your previous experiences, current contexts, and possible opportunities with you as part of the interview process.

We are always happy to discuss these aspects informally prior to completing an application if you would find that helpful, and our specialist Community Work and Chaplaincy tutors will usually take a lead in helping you think through the options, along with Registry.

Please contact us with questions, for more information, or just to chat about the process. We will always be pleased to hear from you!

Accreditation of Prior Learning

Arrangements are made for students to transfer from a course of study at another Higher Education institution to Luther King, or from Luther King to another such institution. This is done on the basis of ‘Accreditation of Prior Learning’ (APL). It allows credits gained to be transferred from one course to another in accordance with the regulations of the institutions concerned. If you would like more information about this, please contact us. A full Accreditation of Prior Learning Policy is available here.

Appeals and Complaints

At Luther King, we are committed to providing a high quality admissions service which is fair and transparent. We recognise, however, that there may be occasions when an applicant feels dissatisfied with the way the admissions process has been conducted or with its outcome and every reasonable effort will be made to deal promptly and efficiently with all complaints and appeals, to investigate them thoroughly and objectively and to seek to resolve them. We have prepared an Admissions Complaints Policy for such cases.
