HECoS codes

HECoS codes

The below table provides the HECoS codes for courses at Manchester Met which are popular for sponsored students.

We would encourage offer holders to seek guidance from their KCO Academic Adviser as to which courses will be approved as being listed here does not mean it will automatically be approved.

Please also note we have only listed subject areas that are possible for study at Manchester Met at each study level, therefore there may be an Undergraduate/Bachelor level course that is an approved subject area by KCO, but does not have an associated Foundation option on Campus, as an example. Or general Foundation routes may have a different HECoS code to a corresponding KCO approved Undergraduate/Bachelor subject area which you can progress to.
