Distance Learning Information

Every ETS course includes a distance learning option for students who cannot attend in person. Some courses are taught exclusively through online learning.

Why study by distance learning?
The main advantage of studying by distance learning is the flexibility. Financial and/or personal circumstances may make studying in Edinburgh less feasible. Distance learning could allow you to combine study with other commitments, including work and family.

How do I apply?
The application process is the same whether you are studying in person or by distance learning. Application forms for all courses can be found here

What tuition fees apply?
Tuition fees are the same whether you study in person or by distance learning. Tuition fees for all courses can be found here.
