University of Wolverhampton

We’re delighted to have been awarded TASS Dual Career Accreditation, and although the University has always encouraged and supported flexible learning for our elite athletes, the accreditation endorses our ambitions to create sporting hubs within the learning environment.

Our reputation has grown in regards to the delivery of high performance sport, with an emphasis on ensuring it is underpinned by a strong foundation of growing our own talent. We are also very focused on managing expectations – we encourage student-athletes to back up their sporting potential with a balance of education and qualifications.

For student athletes, the academic flexibility policies may mean they have the opportunity to access online notes or resources, are able to arrange catch up sessions with lecturers, or even reschedule deadlines or exam dates in exceptional circumstances.

As a Dual Career Accredited Site, University of Wolverhampton will be an important extension of the network of universities that already partner with TASS, delivering core support services to more than 600 student athletes each year.
